Jimenez Blasts Pirates, Cubs Take Game 1, 5-4
|
The Chicago Cubs started the Division Series in style, winning on the road against the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park by a score of 5-4 to take an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-5 series. Cubs first baseman Manuel Jimenez excelled. He was 3-4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2.
The game was at a stalemate until shortstop Miguel Gerena came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Pittsburgh pitcher Willie Lopez, he hit a 3-1 fastball for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Chicago on top, 5-3.
"It's hard to overstate how much this mattered to us, especially in a short series," Chicago manager Vin Calia said.
The next game is set to be played tomorrow at PNC Park in Pittsburgh.
