Cubs one step closer to having on-site sports betting at Wrigley Field
The Cubs still need approval from the City Council, Illinois Gaming Board and the National Park Service.
Rookie Frank Schwindel hustled hard and sprawled for an RBI single that capped a three-run rally with two outs in the ninth inning, lifting the Chicago Cubs over the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-6 for their fifth straight win.
Schwindel had three hits, including a solo home run. He has five homers in six games and 10 this season.
With runners on second and third in the ninth, Schwindel hit a grounder that shortstop Kevin Newman gloved in the hole. Newman pivoted and made a midair throw to first that was wide, and Colin Moran came off the base to catch it.
Schwindel made a dive into the bag and narrowly avoided the tag. The play withstood a video review, handing the Pirates their fifth straight loss.
