The Chicago Cubs wrapped up their three-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers in style, taking a 4-2 win at Dodger Stadium on Sunday.

The day's hero? None other than Pete Crow-Armstrong, who put on a coming-out party performance in his home city with a 3-for-4 game, including two gargantuan home runs that were the difference-makers.

Native Californian Pete Crow-Armstrong treated Cubs fans to a lot of cheering with a two-homer performance that propelled Chicago to victory. His first homer was in the third inning, a solo shot on a four-seam fastball that cleared just inside the right field foul pole, tying the game 1-1.

Later, in the seventh, Crow-Armstrong slammed a cutter from Dodgers reliever Blake Treinen off the center-field wall, providing the Cubs with a 3-2 lead they wouldn't relinquish. According to ABC30, the rookie outfielder's pinch-hit heroics not only silenced the LA crowd but also proved why he's rapidly emerging as one of Chicago's most promising young stars.

Key Relief Pitching Locks Down the Win

The Cubs' bullpen was instrumental in holding on to the victory. Starter Colin Rea gave up only one run in 3 2/3 innings with five strikeouts. Brad Keller and Caleb Thielbar pitched afterward, with Thielbar surrendering the game-tying sacrifice fly in the sixth before being removed.

Ethan Roberts (1-0) came in with two runners on and two outs in the sixth and registered consecutive lineouts to get out of the jam, ultimately earning him the victory. Ryan Pressly entered to finish the game off with a stellar ninth inning, picking up his fourth save of the year.

Dodgers' Late Rally Comes Up Short

The Los Angeles Dodgers took an early lead in the second inning when Michael Conforto, who singled and went to third on Will Smith's base hit, crossed on Enrique Hernandez's RBI single.

Following Crow-Armstrong's first homer, tying the game, Chicago took a 2-1 lead in the sixth courtesy of Michael Busch, a former Los Angeles Dodger, who homered a slider off the right-field stands. The Dodgers then answered in the bottom half of the inning with a sacrifice fly by Max Muncy to tie the game once more before the Cubs took off with an insurance run in the seventh.

Cubs Extend Lead with Insurance Run in the Eighth

The Chicago Cubs posted an insurance run in the eighth inning after successfully overturning a call. Kyle Tucker's left-bound hit was originally called a foul but reversed on a ground-rule double. He advanced to third base on a wild pitch and crossed the plate on Nico Hoerner's run-scoring single to provide the Cubs with a two-run lead at 4-2.

According to MLB, the young center fielder is open to the idea of extending with the Cubs. This could mean that he will stay with Chicago for several years, but of course, the timing for the discussion has to be right.
