Cueto Handcuffs Mets, Cubs Seize 3-1 Advantage in WC
Johnny Cueto pitched a gem to help the Chicago Cubs escape with a tight 1-0 victory over the New York Mets in a low-scoring Wild Card Series contest today. The right-handed Cueto threw 7.2 innings of shutout ball in the win, just enough for the Cubs on a day when their offense dried up. Chicago now leads the best-of-7 series 3-1.

Cueto allowed no runs over 7.2 innings. He also racked up 7 strikeouts.

Cueto attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Wrigley Field 1979-2005 in Chicago.
