Key Points:

- Pete Crow-Armstrong hit a leadoff home run, his sixth of the season, contributing to the Cubs' strong start, while Michael Busch also homered early in the game.
- Cubs pitcher Kevin Gausman struggled with control and left the game due to a cramp, with Javier Assad effectively relieving him and pitching three scoreless innings.
- The game included a nearly 90-minute rain delay, during which fans were entertained, and after resumption, the Cubs managed to rally and secure the walk-off victory.
- The Cubs have shown resilience this season, currently 21 games over .500 and holding a 40-19 record since June 10, trailing the Brewers by 4.5 games in the NL Central; they aim for a series sweep Wednesday with Clay Holmes starting.
