M1 — Lester w/ gutsy pitching performance after M's load bases w/ 1 out. Shallow flyout followed by clutch strikeout. Called strike 3 on cutter that catches outside of plate.

B1 — Standing ovation for Zobrist as he steps up to the plate for his first Cubs AB since early May. The "Bennie and the Jets" walkup song plays over the loudspeakers.

B1 — Swinging K for Zobrist on a full count. Still a memorable plate appearance for him. Shown lots of love by the fans.

B2 — Contreras' return AB is a doozy, as he smokes a no-doubter out to left-center. He slams his bat down in celebration.

T3 — Bad baserunning by Smith results in 9-1 double play for the Cubs. He takes off for 2B when a popup is hit & doesn't realize it until it's too late. He's doubled off at 1B.

B3 — Contreras nearly creates pandemonium at Wrigley. He just misses his 2nd bomb of the night on a towering shot that goes just foul down the LF line.

T6 — Weird moment. There's confusion as to whether or not ball 4 has taken place. Umps have to confer before sending the batter to 1B. Umps then explain it to Lester & Maddon, who seemed to think that the count was 3-2.

M8 — Great heads-up play by Schwarber ends inning. Strange turn of events. 2-out single plates a run, but, almost exactly as the lead runner crosses the plate, a runner is tagged out at 2B. Schwarber opted to throw to 2B to catch runner straying too far from the bag. The play's reviewed, & the call stands. However, Maddon argues that the lead runner didn't cross the plate before the tag was applied at 2B. Run counts, though.
