Chicago Wins at Home to Narrow Series Deficit to 2-1
Already down in the Division Series, the Chicago Cubs put on their best show, beating the Washington Nationals by a final score of 7-6 today. Junzo Kato was special. He hit 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. Chicago now trails Washington 2-1 in the best-of-5 affair.

Chicago won the game in the bottom of the 11th inning. With one out and Manuel Romero on the mound for Washington, shortstop Yasuhide Kasahara hit a dramatic solo home run, bringing Cubs fans to their feet.

"I try to take on every game as if it is the most important of the season, so I don't feel like anything's different now," Kasahara said after the game.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Wrigley Field in Chicago.
