Apr 22, 2025; Chicago, Illinois, USA; Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong (4) celebrates with Chicago Cubs shortstop Dansby Swanson (7) after they score on his two run home run during the fifth inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Wrigley Field. Mandatory Credit: Matt Marton-Imagn Images Miguel Amaya belted a game-tying solo homer with two outs in the ninth inning and Ian Happ hit a walk-off RBI single in the 10th, fueling the host Chicago Cubs to an 11-10 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday.
Chicago’s Kyle Tucker blasted a two-run homer in the eighth and Amaya deposited a 0-1 fastball from Tanner Scott over the wall in center field to forge a 10-10 tie.
Vidal Brujan, who started the 10th inning at second base, came around to score after Happ — who went 4-for-5 — sent a first-pitch screwball from Noah Davis (0-1) into right field.
Happ’s RBI single made a winner out of Porter Hodge (2-0), who struck out one without allowing a hit in one scoreless inning.
Chicago’s Pete Crow-Armstrong highlighted a three-hit performance with an RBI double in a five-run first inning and a two-run homer in the fifth.
In the first, Seiya Suzuki ripped a two-run double, Dansby Swanson slapped an RBI triple and Amaya had an RBI single to help send the Cubs to their sixth win in the last nine games.
Edman belted a three-run shot in the first inning for his team-leading eighth homer of the season. He also launched a three-run shot in Los Angeles’ 3-0 victory over Chicago on April 11.
Will Smith joined Andy Pages in crushing a solo homer and capped the five-run uprising in the seventh inning with an RBI double. Edman also had a sacrifice fly for the Dodgers, who have lost two of their last three games.
Crow-Armstrong continued his torrid stretch by sending a 2-2 fastball from May over the wall in right-center field to stake Chicago to a 7-4 lead in the fifth inning. The homer was his fourth of the season and third against the Dodgers.
Los Angeles inched closer on Smith’s line-drive homer in the sixth before it quickly loaded the bases in the seventh. Third baseman Gage Workman’s error allowed one run to score and Freddie Freeman ripped a two-run double off Brad Keller into left field to stake the Dodgers to an 8-7 lead.
Edman’s sacrifice fly and Smith’s double gave Los Angeles a bit more of a cushion.
Edman’s early blast staked Los Angeles to a quick lead before Chicago responded with five runs in its half of the first inning.
Pages halved the deficit in the second inning by capping an eight-pitch at-bat with a homer to left-center field.

Sorry, NFL: Chiefs Still Look Like Best Team in Professional Football
The Kansas City Chiefs are back to .500, improving to 3-3 after defeating the Detroit Lions on Sunday night. And, apparently, the win was enough for Colin Cowherd to declare that Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid and the Chiefs have regained their throne as the NFL's top team."Everybody's worst nightmare is now official: The Kansas City Chiefs, once again, are the best team in professional football," Cowherd said on Monday's "The Herd." "First three weeks, Mahomes was wobbly, and they were averaging 20 points per game. In their last three games, they're averaging 32 points per game along with that defense and those special teams.""Sorry, NFL, they did it again."Sunday's 30-17 victory was arguably the Chiefs' most impressive of the year, decisively taking down a team that was widely considered to be the best in the league entering Week 6. The Chiefs […]

NFL suspends Brian Branch without pay for initiating postgame brawl between Lions, Chiefs
Brian Branch has been suspended by the NFL for one game without pay for his actions following the Lions' loss to the Chiefs on Sunday night. The Lions' Pro Bowl defensive back initiated a fight between the two teams immediately following the Chiefs' 30-17 win when he punched Kansas City wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster. Branch, who will miss the Lions' upcoming home game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on "Monday Night Football," stands to lose $76,624 for one one-game suspension. He is planning to appeal said suspension, according to NFL Media. Branch attributed his actions postgame to building frustration with Smith-Schuster during Sunday night's game. "I did a real childish thing," Branch said. "I'm tired of people doing stuff in between plays and refs don't catch it. They be trying to bully me out there. I shouldn't have did it, it was childish." Lions […]
What Does Brian Callahan’s Firing Mean for Cam Ward’s Development with Titans?
Cam Ward didn’t have much stability in his college football days. The No. 1 pick had three different offensive playcallers in his last three seasons at Washington State (2022-23) and Miami (2024). That’s on top of the challenges acclimating to different coaching staffs and teammates at three programs in a five-year span. So in August, when asked about what it could mean for him to finally have stability in the NFL, the Titans rookie quarterback said it would "unlock everything.""You see the best quarterbacks out there," Ward said during training camp. "Tom Brady? He had stability. Lamar [Jackson]? He had stability. Pat [Mahomes]? He had stability. I just think that a lot of guys who have stability in the NFL can succeed at a faster rate, but can also succeed long term. I just think that’s what we need in Tennessee."That's […]
