Chicago N (AZL) Breaks Through for First Win in Round 1; Now Trails 2-1
The Chicago N (AZL) Cubs have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Los Angeles N (AZL) Dodgers, winning, 5-2, at Holman Stadium. Cubs right-hander Matt Holman threw 7.0 innings of 4-hit ball. The win cuts the deficit facing the Cubs to 2-1 in the best-of-5 Round 1.

Chicago N (AZL) used a clutch at-bat from Steve Barajas to capture the win. The third baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Cubs ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Every team in baseball loses," Dodgers manager Rich Quirin said. "We're in the playoffs and we still have the same guys that got us here. We'll bounce back."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Sunday, September 9th , 2108.
