Crow-Armstrong’s RBI single in the bottom of the 9th lifts Cubs past the Athletics 7

  • On Thursday night, the Chicago Cubs rallied for a 7-6 victory over the Athletics, avoiding a sweep. Pete Crow-Armstrong provided the deciding RBI single during a four-run ninth-inning surge.
  • The Athletics built a 6-1 lead earlier, fueled by four home runs. Shea Langeliers hit a pair, while Tyler Soderstrom and Jonah Heim added consecutive solo shots in the seventh inning.
  • Ian Happ previously tightened the score with a 446-foot, two-run homer in the seventh inning off Scott Barlow. The Cubs' offense then surged in the ninth, recording five hits off reliever Joel Kuhnel.
  • The Cubs, who had lost 14 of 17, snapped their slump with this victory. Ryan Rolison worked the final 1⅓ innings to earn the win.
  • Up next, the Athletics travel to Houston for a three-game series starting Friday. Meanwhile, the Cubs prepare to host San Francisco on Friday afternoon with RHP Ben Brown starting.
