The Brewers win one of the most thrilling games of the year, tying the Cubs on Orlando Arcia's home run in the ninth and then winning 4-3 on Travis Shaw's two-run walk-off home run in the 10th. Both homers came off Cubs closer Wade Davis as the Brewers avoid what would have been a third straight loss to the Cubs in 10 innings. Catching the Cubs is still unlikely, but the win puts pressure on the Rockies in the wild-card race.

Travis Shaw hit a 2 run HR off Wade Davis to beat the Cubs 4-3 in 10 innings in yet another dramatic finish at Miller Park. Davis blew his first save of the season in the ninth inning when Orlando Arcia homered but Joe Maddon left him in the game after the Cubs took the lead in the 10th on a Jon Jay RBI single. Ryan Braun doubled with one out before Shaw homered. The outcome overshadowed a great game by Jay as well as Kyle Hendricks who went 6 innings allowing just a run. Ian Happ was on base 3 times.
