His hit to the right field stands quickly erased the tension of a complicated first inning and unleashed a four-run rally that proved decisive.\n\n&#8220;When I saw the ball go into the basket on the wall, I just thought about enjoying the moment. We knew we couldn&#8217;t afford any mistakes today,&#8221; Busch said after the game.\n\nChicago&#8217;s pitching staff held the lead until the end, securing a key victory that avoids the sweep and gives the team hope in the series, which is now 2-1 in favor of Milwaukee.\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chicago looks to even the series at home<\/h3>\n\n\nThe <strong>Game 4<\/strong> will be played this Thursday again at <strong>Wrigley Field<\/strong>, where the Cubs have been especially strong this season with a record of <strong>53-30<\/strong> between the regular season and the postseason.\n\nAccording to historical statistics, only <strong>14 of 34 teams<\/strong> that have lost the first two games in a Divisional Series managed to force a fourth game, and just <strong>three<\/strong> completed the full comeback. Chicago will try to join that select group.\n\nThe combination of early power, timely pitching, and crowd energy allowed the Cubs to extend their season at least one more game.\n\n&#8220;This city never gives up, and neither do we,&#8221; commented manager <strong>Craig Counsell<\/strong>, highlighting the team&#8217;s attitude in the face of adversity.\n\nWith the series still alive and confidence renewed, the Cubs will seek to tie on Thursday to force a decisive <strong>Game 5<\/strong>.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CHICAGO \u2014 The Chicago Cubs showed their character at the most critical moment and, with a solid offensive performance in the first inning, stayed alive in the National League Division Series by defeating the Milwaukee Brewers 4-3 this Wednesday at Wrigley Field.
