Cubs 1-0 Over Guardians in 1968‑Style Throwback

The Chicago Cubs won 1-0 over the Cleveland Guardians in a game that felt like the 1968 “Year of the Pitcher.” Edward Cabrera delivered six scoreless innings, throwing 97 pitches with only 51 strikes, while the Cubs’ lone run came from a walk, pinch‑runner, sacrifice bunt and a hit that brought the runner home.

Cabrera’s outing was the Cubs’ first 1-0 win since Aug. 1, 2025, and the game mirrored the era’s low‑scoring style, with strong defense and pitching keeping the Guardians off balance.
