B3 — Nats get 2 straight singles to start inning. Throwing error by Bote on the 2nd one puts runners on the corners. After runner caught stealing, ensuing walk puts runners on corners again. Nats then hit back-to-back doubles to open floodgates.

M5 — Cubs use small ball to get runners in scoring position. A couple of passed balls lead to Heyward coming in to score. Russell thrown out at home, though.

E5 — Nats tack on another run. Edwards relieves Lester (who gave up 5 runs on 10 hits in 4.1 IP) & draws inning-ending lineout.

T6 — Bote gets the Cubs on track with a solo bomb to lead off the 6th. A much-needed hit for him.

E8 — Brach gets a clutch K with the bases loaded & 2 outs, leaving the door slightly ajar for the Cubs to mount a comeback.
