The Chicago Cubs took Game 1 of their series against the Colorado Rockies at Wrigley Field, an important response after the Rockies surprisingly won the previous series between the two teams in Colorado. Looking to make a statement and prove the road struggles were a fluke, the Cubs were powered by Pete Crow-Armstrong, who put together a historic performance, falling just short of the 13th cycle in Chicago Cubs history with a home run, double, and single while also impacting a huge triple play and keeping the offense alive throughout the game. Shota Imanaga was excellent on the mound and came within an out of a quality start before being lifted in the sixth inning, while Matt Shaw made a strong return from injury and delivered the game-winning moment with a walk-off walk to seal it for Chicago.
