The game saw its fair share of tension-filled moments, but the boys in red and white held their ground and delivered the win.Early Back-and-Forth Action

But that didn't dampen our spirits. Bryson Stott responded emphatically in the 3rd inning with a thrilling triple to right field, shortly followed by Turner driving him home with a single to tie up the game.
Edge-of-the-Seat Finish!
The game stayed tied well into the bottom of the 9th. Relief pitcher José Alvarado ensured the score remained even with an impressive performance. Finally, in the 10th inning, it was our time to shine. J.T. Realmuto and Max Kepler each drew walks, eventually leading to a pivotal sacrifice fly by Alec Bohm, allowing Castellanos to score. Then, Turner once again came through with an infield single, giving Kepler the chance to score and extend our lead.Jordan Romano closed the show beautifully, leaving the Cubs scoreless in the bottom of the 10th with three quick outs. Hats off to our bullpen and defense for maintaining composure and sealing a well-earned victory.
