The Cubs played their final game of the year at Sloan Park Saturday night. Most of the regulars were on this side of the split squad, as Anthony Rizzo gave Chicago all the offense they needed. (Box score)
Why The Cubs Won
Starting with Mike Montgomery, Cubs pitching was outstanding against a tough Rockies lineup.
Key Moment
After Ben Zobrist reached on a Nolan Arenado misplay (it happened, I swear), Anthony Rizzo took Jake McGee very deep to right for a homer. The two-run bomb put the Cubs up 2-0 in the 4th inning.
