Pete Crow-Armstrong homered twice and drove in four runs, and the Chicago Cubs swept the struggling Los Angeles Dodgers with a wild 7-6 victory on Wednesday.
Dodgers’ Skid Continues
The two-time defending World Series champions have dropped six in a row for the first time since a seven-game skid in July 2025. Shohei Ohtani went deep twice for the NL West-leading Dodgers, and Max Muncy connected for a three-run homer in a five-run eighth inning.
Crow-Armstrong and Ohtani exchanged leadoff homers in the first, continuing what has become a two-man race for NL MVP. Chicago left-hander Shota Imanaga scattered eight hits while working five innings of one-run ball. He struck out six and walked none.
Jacob Webb worked a perfect ninth for his sixth save, securing the Cubs’ win.
