Ian Happ #8 of the Chicago Cubs celebrates with his teammates after hitting a solo home run against the Milwaukee Brewers in the ninth inning at American Family Field on September 29, 2023 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

MILWAUKEE – Ian Happ’s game-tying homer towered over American Family Field in the ninth inning, renewing the Cubs’ hopes for a comeback, not only in the game but also the wild card standings.

Then just as quickly, the Cubs’ hopes fell, squandering a bases-loaded opportunity before the Brewers Carlos Santana drove a walk-off double into left field in the 10th inning.
