CHICAGO — Pete Crow-Armstrong hit a tiebreaking two-run single and the Chicago Cubs avoided a sweep by holding off the Milwaukee Brewers for a 4-3 victory in Game 3 of their NL Division Series on Wednesday.
Crow-Armstrong’s two-out swing was part of a four-run first inning for Chicago, continuing a wild trend. Michael Busch kicked off the rally by becoming the first player in major league history with multiple leadoff homers in a single postseason series.
The matchup of NL Central rivals is the first postseason series in which both teams scored in the first in each of the first three games.
