Mets Clip Cubs 6-5 in WC Contest
Chicago shortstop Jean Segura pounded New York Mets pitchers at Shea Stadium 1979-2008, but it was not enough to keep the Cubs from falling, 6-5 in Game 6 of the Wild Card Series. Segura went 3-5 with 2 home runs and a triple, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice, though he couldn't prevent the Cubs from slipping into a 3-3 tie in the best-of-7 series.

Had Jason Kipnis not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Kipnis hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 6-5, in favor of the Mets.

Kipnis called the triumph "a good team win."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Shea Stadium 1979-2008 in New York.
