Nico Hoerner scored the tying run from second base on a wild pitch in the ninth inning, then delivered the go-ahead single in the 11th as the Chicago Cubs rallied past the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-2 on Monday night.
"His baserunning play in the ninth was spectacular," Chicago manager Craig Counsell said. "We’ve seen him have some baserunning plays like that, so it was a huge play, and the big hit obviously in the 11th."Michael Busch homered for the Cubs leading off the second on an 0-2 pitch from Merrill Kelly. It was the rookie’s sixth of the season and fifth straight game with a home run, equaling the franchise record.
"Ginkel, who spotted where the ball rolled to before Moreno did, took the blame for the wild pitch and the hits that preceded it."I feel terrible for not getting out of that spot. It bounced off Gabby and went to the farthest spot from the plate," Ginkel said. "I just needed to make better pitches."Cubs rookie Ben Brown, making his second career start and fourth appearance, retired his last 13 batters and gave up only one hit in six innings.
