Cubs Secure Dramatic Walk-Off Win Against Diamondbacks

Nico Hoerner's late-game heroics help Chicago avoid a series sweep and keep playoff hopes alive.

  • Nico Hoerner doubled in the ninth inning and scored the tying run, then walked with the bases loaded in the 10th to clinch the win.
  • All-Star pitcher Shota Imanaga struck out 10 batters and allowed only two hits over seven innings.
  • The Cubs' offense struggled, managing just one hit before the ninth inning rally.
  • Chicago is currently 3.5 games out of the last NL wild-card spot, with a crucial series against the Brewers up next.
  • The win marks only the second time this season the Cubs have won a game when trailing entering the ninth inning.
