Baez will start at shortstop and bat leadoff in Sunday night's series finale against the Dodgers.

Baez has spent the bulk of the season batting cleanup (61 of 70 games) for the Cubs, but he'll climb to the top of the order with Kyle Schwarber receiving the day off. The 26-year-old batted leadoff four times last season and has 10 starts there in his career, and he will have a tough task Sunday against Dodgers lefty Hyun-Jin Ryu.
