"Nico Hoerner stayed absolutely red-hot with a two-run homer off of Senga in the bottom of the frame to give the North Siders a 6-3 advantage."

They started strong with four runs in the first inning, including a three-run homer from Moisés Ballesteros. Although the Mets closed the gap to 4-3, the Cubs extended their lead with additional runs, including a two-run homer from Nico Hoerner.
