In the bottom of the eighth, shortstop Javier Baez kept the Cubs alive with a game-tying two-run blast, which he hit with two outs. After the Dodgers failed to score in the top of the ninth, Bote provided the North Siders with a 4-3 victory in the bottom of the ninth. Bryant, who began the half-inning at second and advanced to third on an Anthony Rizzo groundout, scored with ease on Bote's one-out base knock to right. As a result, Bote increased his RBI total to 15.
