Twins Lose to Cubs in Walk Off
The home crowd had a good time watching the Minnesota Twins and Chicago Cubs get after it.

Minnesota second baseman Matt McLain had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 10-7, to Chicago at Wrigley Field. McLain was 3 for 5 with a home run and a triple. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Chicago is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 9th in 24 games.

Chicago won the game in the bottom of the tenth inning. With no outs and Caleb Thielbar on the mound for Minnesota, pinch hitter Randal Grichuk hit a dramatic 3-run home run, bringing Cubs fans to their feet.

"We need to get rid of the bad mojo," said Grichuk. "Maybe this win will help."
