Chicago’s Dansby Swanson drives in the go-ahead run with a two-out single in the 10th inning as the Cubs beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-2 on Friday night. Swanson’s RBI single scores automatic runner Ian Happ, with Happ beating the center fielder Jake Mangum’s throw at the plate to put Chicago up 2-1. Seiya Suzuki follows with a bases-loaded walk that increases the Cubs’ lead. The Pirates score earlier in the game and remain within one run late, but Chicago holds for the one-run victory. The Cubs’ pitching is led by starter Justin Boyd, who turns in a strong outing and earns the win as the game reaches extra innings. The late-inning rally is supported by the Cubs’ ability to capitalize on baserunners in the 10th. Yohan Ramírez takes the loss after allowing Swanson’s RBI and Suzuki’s walk. Both teams finish with a 3-2 final score in favor of Chicago.
