Tarik Skubal made his Dodgers debut at Wrigley Field in a high-stakes showdown against the Cubs — but it ended in heartbreak as L.A. fell 5-1 for their fifth straight loss. Skubal started fireballing, striking out Pete Crow-Armstrong and retiring the first six batters, but Dansby Swanson’s solo homer tied the game. Things unraveled in the sixth when runners scored on a close call at home and a bizarrely bouncing grounder nobody could handle. Skubal left after six innings with six strikeouts and two earned runs. The Dodgers’ offense barely showed up, scoring just once on Kyle Tucker’s homer. Now at 69-45, they’re desperate to avoid being swept in this series, with Eric Lauer set to take the mound today.
