So the switch hitter batting left. Simon is in. Assad fires and the first pitch of the game is grounded to the right side. Home takes it and throws him out. For much more time with you back at you, brother one on Horwitz. Ground ball. Her tried again. Shuffles to his right and quickly there. Two outs. Take time. Take a half inning to just watch Nico her as the play develops. Little flare down the third baseline and that’ll fall for a hit. Half over to collect it. Reynolds racing for second and the throw is late. It’s a bloop double. 10 years of service time. Two swing and a miss. Struck him out and pitches around the two out bloop double. We’ll go to the bottom. Swing in a line drive. Rocketed to center and right at the center. Three and one bounced towards first and Horwitz on the throw by the center fielder and putting himself back in on the ground to short. Triolo collects they quickly there are three outs.

Bush down to a knee with a runner on the move. And Michael steps on the back. Teaching moments at the big line drive out towards right center field. That’s well struck and it’ll touch down for a hit. In to score is Connor Faleppa throwing to second. Safe. It’s an RBI double for Spencer Horowit. And back into the infield. And that was lightning quick for PCR. Line drive right field. Tucker back and Kyle makes the catch. Bam lines to right. That was really just a time for him where it was a total reset. We know that as he pulls that one there on the ground to the short side.

Bush up with it to second for one. Return to a side out. It’s a double play. Two-2 swing and a miss. Struck him out. Bart is gone. One, two. Little roller to third. Shaw quickly throws out Connor Falefa, right? It’s an improvement adjustment from last year. And what they say in softball as he grounds out there, be aggressive. Got to be aggressive. Do you know there’s a cheer beying? Two down. Cincinnati popped up. Foul ground right side. Michael Bunch has it and swing and a miss and Horowitz gun on strikes. Two away your wrist. Yeah. Line drive caught third. Matt Shaw. What a play. First and second base. The one two softly hit to third. Connor Falefa rid of it and out at first. 3-2 line draw hits the bag. Fair ball down the line. Here comes in Danby racing for second. Half is in. Swanson sprinting for third and he’s in there. And the Cubs have the lead two in the air. Triolo messing with it and he makes the catch. Swanson edging away at third and foul ground. Here’s a 3-2 ground ball to first. Backhanded by Horowitz. He’ll take it himself. Be any better. Can be in exactly the same spot. Swinging a miss. Struck him out. There’s one away. needed that line drive down the left side and that one curling into the corner around third. Then to score is Gonzalez Sinsky’s on his heels. He’s coming in to score and the Pirates have the lead. Play for the catcher on a hop. They’re going to third tag and out. Horowitz now grounds to the right side where Hor will throw him out. But the Pirates score twice. First fair ball and Tucker is out in the air. Softly hit that one. Fall in. Falling and it falls in to score. DCA to third RBI single and we’re tied up 3-3 and that’s in there and half is gone in the air right field. Simon and he’ll face Reynolds then Fam and then Gonzalez. Switch hitter batting left and a liner out towards left center where Hat pulls it down. One away back in 06. Swing and a miss and Brown gets him. He just has those two weapons that are filthy and then he can use that leverage. Swing and a miss. Struck him out. Ben Brown popped up left side and Connor Falefa Cubs for a quick strike offense drive. One hop flag down by Gonzalez. Nice play. Steel ready the pitch to Seiya outside corner and Suzuki rung up on strikes. Payoff pitch that’s drilled right field.

Got him swinging. Fail ball. Drilled right center field. That one is back. And that one is going to hit the track and then Hop fly ball right field. Simon back. This will be deep enough. Simon makes the catch. Kelly will tag and Kelly will score. Danby Swanson sack fly cut and two and the pitch center field. Suinski back and makes the catch. 3-2 pitch and he beat him with a fast ball. PCA and half and it’ll be DCA comfortable going to him here in the ninth inning. Chop towards third. Castro is there. Ste ball game. Cubs win. They had to work hard for it, but they take two of three from the Pirates. And up next, a five game set with the Brewers. You can exhale a little bit. So, the Cubs win, the Brewers lose. What’s up? I was just going to say and while we’re at it, why don’t we play the song?

💙W
My team Espanyol wins 2 1 to At Madrid, and Cubs win. WHAT A FANTASTIC SUNDAY!!!!!!
It was the Pirates…the lowly Pirates…and they barely eked out a win…prepare yourselves for 5 games worth of bad news.
Beautiful series! These are the ones that build chemistry!
i remember the rangers coming in as a wild card and winning it all. even beat the cheating assholetros out.
This is ridiculous why do the cubs suck at hitting saya has no home runs neither does the rest of the team they better get their heads out the sand if the want to maintain hold on the wild card or they'll be out looking In like last season
