Baseball: Imanaga Throws Solid 1-Run Ball, Earns 9th Win as Cubs Beat Marlins
Shota Imanaga held Miami to one run over six innings, and Pete Crow-Armstrong stole his 33rd base as Chicago scored three in the sixth.
- On Friday, the Chicago Cubs defeated the Miami Marlins 6-1, with starting pitcher Shota Imanaga allowing three hits and one run over six innings in Miami.
- The Cubs took a 1-0 lead in the second inning when Ian Happ scored on Pedro Ramirez's fielder's choice, then added three runs in the sixth against Miami relievers.
- Michael Busch hit a 427-foot solo home run in the ninth for his 18th of the season, while Aaron Civale pitched the final three innings for his second save.
- Bolstering his NL MVP case, Crow-Armstrong stole his 33rd base and scored twice, then made a leaping catch to rob Heriberto Hernandez of an extra-base hit in the sixth.
- Imanaga struck out four over six-plus innings and said, "It means nothing if you can't keep doing it," as he pursues a stronger playoff conversation down the final month.
