 CHICAGO (AP) - Jacque Jones hit a game-tying two-run double in the seventh and scored the go-ahead run on an error by reliever Scott Linebrink as the Chicago Cubs rallied to beat the Milwaukee Brewers 5-3 on Tuesday night.
The first-place Cubs scored four runs in the seventh to increase their lead over the Brewers in the NL Central to 2 1/2 games. St. Louis started play Tuesday night two games back.
The three-game series is the final meeting this season between the Brewers, who'd spent 125 days in first this season, and the Cubs, who have been tied for first or in sole possession of the lead since Aug. 17.
