Raucous Wrigley Field Crowd Propels Cubs to 5-1 Victory; Series Tied at 1
The Chicago Cubs topped the Atlanta Braves by the score of 5-1 and moved into a 1-1 tie in the Wildcard Series today. The largest share of the credit belongs to Chicago starter Marcus Stroman, who threw 7.2 innings of 4-hit ball in the win.

Christopher Morel dealt the Braves a blow in the bottom of the fourth. Batting with runners on 1st and 3rd and Chicago leading 1-0, Morel, who led the NL in triples with 9 in 2024, hit a 1-1 slider for a 3-run home run.

Stroman attributed the win to his team's "hyper resolve."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Wrigley Field in Chicago.
