The win put them in a position to win another series as they continue to play better baseball in the second half of the season. The Cubs have won five of seven series since the All-Star break and have gone 13-10. The Nationals, though, are looking to secure a rare series win and send the Cubs home with another loss in the finale.

The Cubs got two more hits last night from recent pickup Franmil Reyes, one of which was a solo home run. Reyes has hit safely in all six games with the Cubs as he looks to revitalize a season that saw the Guardians release him.

The Nationals got home runs from Luke Voigt and Lane Thomas in the bottom of the eighth inning to tie the game at four and send it to extras. They ultimately couldn't complete the comeback as they gave up two runs in the top of the 11th and were shut down.
