Watch: Willson Contreras Breaks Tie with Solo Home Run

After an incredible force-out play at home in the bottom of the 5th inning, the Cubs were looking for a little offense to break the scoreless tie. Willson Contreras obliged.

Contreras barely snuck this ball out. The opposite-field shot hit the top of the wall and it’s given the Cubs a narrow 1-0 lead.
