27

The Cubs needed just over an inning to get the win 2-1 over the Mets for their seventh straight win.  Anthony Rizzo had four hits as he stayed hot, Javy Baez took a leadoff walk to start the 11th before Caratini bunted and a throwing error gave the Cubs two in scoring position with none out.  Kyle Schwarber was walked and then Albert Almora struck out but the World Series MVP Ben Zobrist slapped a single up the middle for his 6th walk off RBI of his career.  The Cubs are now 6-0 in Cole Hamels starts and 7-0 since Daniel Murphy joined the lineup.  We play game 2 at 1:20 CST later today.
