Cody Bellinger, coming off a 3-home-run game

Cody Bellinger was having a revenge game and produced the first three-homer game of his career, but the Cubs robbed him when he nearly launched a fourth.
The division lead is down to one game after Friday's lackluster 11-0 loss in the Bronx, but no one around the Cubs is panicking.
But Bellinger indeed got his third homer of the game in his final at-bat in the eighth inning, a ball that a Yankees fan snagged in his glove just out of reach of Cubs centerfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong. After the game, Bellinger said he had met the young fan, whom he thanked for keeping the ball out of the park.
Cody Bellinger was robbed of a home run by Kyle Tucker, but still homers three times against his former team to lead the Yankees to a win #CurtainCall
