How did the Cubs rally to beat the Athletics?
The views and opinions of Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, and Mark Grody should not be taken too seriously. Especially when they give advice. Do not take Marshall's analogies literally. Especially when it comes to Russell Dorsey. The sports thoughts of Rahimi, Harris, and Grody may change at any time. It's just sports. Okay, thanks, bye.
Rahimi Harrison-Grody, 10-2 on 104.3 The Score. Chicago Cubs baseball is on the air from Wrigley Field in Chicago. It's time for game three of this three-game series between the Chicago Cubs and the Athletics. Langelier, right-handed batter, hits out of a crouch, open stance. The 2-0, and a high fly ball hit to deep right, going back and forward, at the track near the wall, leaps, and this one is gone. Fly ball center field. DCF can't find it. And it's over his head. And all the way to the warning track. In to score Volte. Legoliers racing all the way around the bases. The throw is too late. And he's in. It'll go as an inside the parker. As Pete Crow Armstrong lost it. I am dead inside. Drilled in the air.
Deep right field. Goes back. Going back is Thomas. That ball is gone. It's a home run. Keith Crow Armstrong. A line drive. Home run. And let's see if that turns on the Cubs offense.
So you're telling me there's a chance.
Shortage ready. The pitch. And a line drive into deep left center field for Armstrong at the drop, looks up, gone. Opposite field home run for Tyler Soderstrom. Heim swings, drills one deep in the air, left center field. This one, he's way out of here. Halfway up the bleachers, back-to-back home runs for the Athletics here in the 7th. And the season's over. And here we go. High fly ball, right field, out of 12, forget it. Ian Happ will touch the ball, his 14th. That was crushed. 6-3. And the pitch. Swing and a looper. Shallow right center field. That's a base hit. Cubs win the ball game. Pete Crow Armstrong delivers. What a finish. What a finish. This is one for the memory banks. Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, Mark Grody.
Midday's 10 a.m. to 2 on Chicago Sports Radio 104.3 The Score.
Hoo boy! You got all that? What a game it was last night. Thanks to Pat Hughes, Ron Coomer, Zach Zaidman, and everybody who hung with that game because the Cubs able to get the two-out rally in the bottom of the ninth. and they were walking it off thanks to Dansby Swanson. This is Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 104.3 The Score on this Friday. Here's our situation just so you all are aware. We are getting you ready for a Cubs game that is scheduled right now for 120.

So we will keep you posted and we will give you updates from the ballpark and let you know what's happening as we find out.
But in the meantime... The home win streak stops in a way I did not see happening. I don't know about you guys, but this was yet another roller coaster game. Pete Crow Armstrong, I think it was the most PCA game I've ever seen. The inside the park home run, ball goes over his head.
What insights did Cliff Floyd provide about the Cubs' season?
I wanted to throw something at the TV, but he was also a huge reason why this team came back and won 7-6.
You remember yesterday when I said that Game 2 of this series was the epitome of Cubs baseball in 2026. Well, guess what? Game 3 of this series, also the epitome of Cubs baseball in 2026. It's been... Not so much up and down as these violent swings of a 15-game home winning streak, and then an 8-game home losing streak, and then two 10-game winning streaks, and just lulls where they could not hit with runners in scoring position. Then down 6-1, they come charging back, and in the ninth inning, multiple hits with runners in scoring position. In fact, for the game, 6-for-10 with runners in scoring position. Haven't said something like that in a very, very long time. ultimate low of having a ball go over your head and you have no idea where it is and it's an inside the park home run to him coming up with not just the home run but also then the walk off hit just perfectly encapsulates
