Ian Happ homered twice, including a two-run shot in the sixth inning that rallied the Chicago Cubs to an 8-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies.

PHILADELPHIA — Even as right-hander Ben Brown struggled with command from the onset of his start Wednesday against the Phillies, the Cubs needed him to cover innings. In the Cubs’ 7-2 loss, he at least delivered 5⅔ innings. But it was a slog most of the way, as he allowed six runs and eight hits.

When will Bryce Harper and Brandon Marsh return to the Phillies' lineup as they wrap up a three-game series vs. Cubs

Brandon Marsh singled home the winning run in the 11th inning after the Phillies used two bunt hits to load the bases and beat the Cubs, 4-3.

The Cubs then pulled ahead in the 11th on an RBI double by Crow-Armstrong. Cubs starter Matthew Boyd, who held the Phillies to two runs (one earned) in six innings, harped on his own error on a pickoff attempt, which eventually led to the second run.

Zack Wheeler recorded his 1,000th strikeout with the Phillies in the sixth inning in yet another quality start for the ace.

Cubs vs. Pirates with Matthew Boyd on the mound, the Phillies take on the Blue Jays, and the Nationals' Mackenzie Gore will get a start.

Philadelphia Phillies right-hander Zack Wheeler has won 109 games in his major league career, but not one of those has come against the Toronto Blue Jays.
