The Story

The Chicago Cubs walked off the San Francisco Giants 3-2 in ten innings at Wrigley Field on June 6, 2026, in a game that was scoreless through five frames before exploding with late-game drama. The DiamondIQ model entered the night favoring the Cubs at 66 percent and closed at 100 percent after a remarkable sequence of swings shifted the outcome in Chicago's favor.

Pete Crow-Armstrong was the central figure in the Cubs' comeback, delivering two home runs that accounted for the most significant win-probability swings of the night. His first, a solo shot off Landen Roupp in the bottom of the sixth, added 14.8 percent to Chicago's win probability and gave the Cubs their first lead. San Francisco responded in the top of the ninth, with Bryce Eldridge singling off Daniel Palencia for an 18.0 percent swing and Matt Chapman following with a sacrifice fly worth 15.3 percent, giving the Giants a 2-1 advantage heading into the bottom of the frame. Crow-Armstrong then erased that deficit entirely, connecting off Keaton Winn for a game-tying home run that swung win probability by 48.9 percent, the single largest play of the contest. In the bottom of the tenth, Michael Busch ended it with a walk-off single off Sam Hentges, a 35.9 percent swing that completed the comeback.

Crow-Armstrong finished as the game's top performer by a wide margin, accumulating a combined WPA of plus-69.1 percent and a RE24 of plus-2.3. Busch added plus-34.7 percent WPA and plus-1.3 RE24, while Chapman's plus-18.7 percent WPA was the top mark among Giants hitters. On the pitching side, Jacob Webb led Chicago's relievers with plus-18.9 percent WPA, followed closely by Ben Brown at plus-17.6 percent and Landen Roupp at plus-17.3 percent, despite surrendering Crow-Armstrong's first homer.
