Game Recap

Chicago's stunning 3-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night was secured by a dramatic two-run rally in the ninth inning, a comeback effort aided by the defensive work of Cubs catcher Willson Contreras who helped his team throw out two runners trying to score at home plate and one more at third base earlier in the game.
