CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Cubs haven't played meaningful baseball in September for a while. But now that they are, confidence isn't at a shortage.
Anthony Rizzo had three hits & scored three runs, Jorge Soler hit a pinch-hit, 3-run homer & the Chicago Cubs beat the Milwaukee Brewers 9-5 on Monday night.
The Cubs inched closer to a NL playoff berth as their magic number to clinch fell to four. Chicago, which last made the playoffs in 2008, entered Monday two games behind Pittsburgh for the first wild card berth & has now won six of seven, playing well when it matters.
