CUBS 6 REDS 4 F 12...NORTH Siders chip away at a 4-1 deficit early only to go Extras and win it in the 12th..."GET AWAY DAY" as the CUBBIES avoid the Four-Piece Sweep at the hands of the RED LEGS on the Ohio! #CHCvsCIN

The Chicago Cubs get on their horse avoiding the four-piece sweep as the tie the ball game in the 8th on a Starlin Castro Single and win it in the 12th Luis Valbuena Triple 6-4. The Reds were up on Cubs Starter Kyle Hendricks (ND 6 IP 5 H 4 R 4 ER 3 BB 7 SO HR) after one 3-0 as they get two singles and a double. The Cubbies get one back in their half of the 3rd on a Arismendy Alcantara Sac-Fly off Reds Starter Homer Bailey (ND 5 IP 2 H 3 R  3 ER 2 BB 3 SO HR) to make it 3-1. The Reds struck in the bottom half of the 3rd on a Ryan Ludwick Solo Blast to make it 4-1 Reds. Both starters get No-Decisions as the Reds Bullpen not the Cubs Bullpen couldn't preserve the win.

The Cubbies move to 39-52 and a three-piece home stand right before the Break playing the NL East leading Hotlanta Braves. The Red Legs fall to 49-43 as they get a Buccos Team that will be reeling from St. Louis regardless if they win or lose later on tonight.
