Pete Crow-Armstrong went 3-for-4 and slugged two home runs as the visiting Chicago Cubs won the rubber match of their three-game set 4-2 against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday.

Reliever Ethan Roberts (1-0) got the final two outs of the sixth inning to earn the win, and Ryan Pressly was perfect in the ninth for his fourth save.

Dodgers reliever Blake Treinen (0-2) allowed one run, Crow-Armstrong’s second bomb of the game, on two hits in the seventh inning. Starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow gave up two runs on three hits and struck out seven in six innings.

Crow-Armstrong, a Los Angeles-area native, gave Chicago a 3-2 lead when he knocked a cutter from Treinen over the fence in center field.

In the eighth, Kyle Tucker was awarded a ground-rule double after his hit to left field, which was initially ruled foul, was overturned on a Cubs challenge. He advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored on Nico Hoerner’s single to make it 4-2.

Michael Busch, who broke into the majors with the Dodgers, belted a slider into the right field stands in the top of the sixth inning to put Chicago ahead 2-1.

Cubs reliever Caleb Thielbar replaced reliever Brad Keller in the bottom half, but his appearance was short-lived. Michael Conforto led off with a single to center and Will Smith followed with double to move Conforto to third. Max Muncy’s sacrifice fly to right brought in Conforto to tie it 2-2.

That ended Thielbar’s outing, with Roberts getting a pair of lineouts to end the inning.

The Dodgers took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the second. Conforto knocked a line-drive single to center field, advanced to third on Smith’s single, and scored on Enrique Hernandez’s single to left.

Chicago responded in the top of the third. Crow-Armstrong connected on a four-seam fastball, putting it just inside the right field pole for his first home run of the season, tying the game 1-1.

Cubs starter Colin Rea allowed one run on four hits and fanned five in 3 2/3 innings before being replaced by Keller in the fourth.

‘I fell asleep!’ – Bunting says fans got him through thrilling first-round win

Stephen Bunting says he "fell asleep" to give Poland's Sebastian Bialecki an opportunity to knock him out of the first round at the World Darts Championship.Bialecki was on the verge of the biggest shock yet at this year's tournament as he roared back from 2-0 down to send the match to a deciding set and led 2-1 in the final set. However, world No 4 Bunting reeled off three legs in a row to avoid a major surprise but admits he "maybe thought the game was over" after dominating the opening two sets. "That was not the plan. I felt comfortable. For whatever reason, I fell asleep and to go behind in the match was a travesty, to be honest," said Bunting, who reached the semi-finals of the World Championship last year."I felt a bit worthless, but I'm happy to […]

Patriots’ loss to Josh Allen, Bills is a slice of ‘humble pie’ — and maybe exactly what Drake Maye and Co. need

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — In the below-freezing tunnel of Gillette Stadium, Mike Vrabel held a stat sheet in his left hand and kept his right hand free for greetings.Vrabel extended a fist bump to some of his players and a reassuring chest pat to others. He was not festive but he also was not forlorn. This was not the head-hanging or tunnel walk of silence in which losing coaches so often engage.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIn fact, when tight end Hunter Henry looked down and shook his head after their encounter, Vrabel seemed intent on reminding the veteran: A 35-31 loss to the reigning league MVP and five-years-running division champions is nothing to be ashamed of.“You know what I mean? This is the National Football League,” Vrabel shouted as Henry disappeared into the locker room.Before long, receiver Stefon Diggs rounded out the group of players […]

Warriors coach Steve Kerr again pleads for gun control after latest mass shooting, this time at Brown University

Another mass shooting, another impassioned plea for gun control from Steve Kerr.The Golden State Warriors coach spoke for about three minutes unprompted on Sunday night before their 136-131 loss against the Portland Trail Blazers and again called for gun reform in the wake of a mass shooting at Brown University.“With what happened last night at Brown, it’s just a reminder to me that these shootings continue to happen, and there is something we can do about them. The loss that all of the people involved [Saturday] night, the loss that they’re feeling, it’s exactly the same loss as all the Parkland families, and every other mass shooting.“Nobody asked me about it today. I didn’t expect anybody to ask me. I doubt we’re gonna do a moment of silence out there because it’s human nature just to not want to deal […]
