Cubs walk off over Dodgers, put the league on notice

The Cubs are coming.

In fact, you could make the case they've already arrived.

The Cubs walked it off over the Los Angeles Dodgers Tuesday night in a 1-0 thriller in front of 36,799 fans at Wrigley Field.

Little-used outfielder Mike Baxter led off the 10th with a single and Matt Szczur - who homered off Clayton Kershaw Monday night - followed with an infield hit off the glove of Alberto Callaspo at 3B. Pinch-hitter Dexter Fowler followed with a walk to load the bases with nobody out.

Rookie Addison Russell then fought off pitch after pitch from Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen before bouncing a grounder to Adrian Gonzalez at 1B, who threw home to get the force.
