CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Cubs keep rolling along, whether they’re running away with lopsided victories or squeezing out tight ones like this.
Ben Zobrist hit a bases-loaded RBI single in the 11th inning to give the Chicago Cubs a 2-1 victory over the New York Mets and their season-high seventh straight win on Wednesday in a game that was suspended the previous night because of rain.
Zobrist grounded the winning single up the middle with one out after Chicago loaded the bases against Paul Sewald (0-5). That kept the Cubs rolling after play was stopped Tuesday night with the game tied at 1-all.
