The Cubs, led by pitcher Kyle Hendricks, faced the daunting task of containing the star-studded Dodgers lineup. Throughout the game, pitching ahead in the count was crucial for the Cubs to keep the powerful Dodgers hitters in check.

Despite Hendricks striking out Mookie Betts early in the game, the Dodgers managed to put pressure on the Cubs with hits from Shohei Otani and timely plays that loaded the bases and led to the first run of the game.

In the bottom of the ninth, with the Cubs clinging to a one-run lead, a controversial call at first base went in their favor, helping them secure a crucial out.

With the tying run on base and tension running high, Chris Taylor hit a line drive that seemed destined for a hit, but Cubs outfielder Michael Bus made a stunning diving catch to seal the win for the Cubs.
