The Chicago Cubs fought back in Game 1 of their series against the Detroit Tigers at Wrigley Field, but Ian Happ's clutch two-run, game-tying home run in the eighth inning was not enough as the Cubs ultimately fell short. Seiya Suzuki endured a rollercoaster night with both big moments and costly mistakes, Michael Busch provided an offensive spark with a home run, and Jameson Taillon battled through four innings after surrendering two home runs that put Chicago in an early hole. Pete Crow-Armstrong had a quiet night at the plate as the Cubs struggled to finish the comeback after Happ's late-game heroics. Join Luke Stuckmeyer, Joey Christopoulos, and Justin Roman on CHGO Cubs for instant postgame reactions, expert analysis, and the biggest takeaways.
