In a matchup of National League playoff contenders, Javier Assad pitched a season-high eight shutout innings and Jeimer Candelario launched his career-best 20th homer to help Chicago take a 1-0 lead into the ninth.
Jake Fraley led off with a double against Mark Leiter Jr. , and pinch-runner Harrison Bader stole third. TJ Friedl walked and Spencer Steer was hit by a pitch before De La Cruz singled to right field.
He hit a grounder to shortstop, and the Cubs tried to turn an inning-ending double play. Renfroe barely beat the relay to first, allowing Friedl to score the winning run.In the second game of Friday's doubleheader, the Reds erased a 2-1 deficit in the ninth against Chicago closer Adbert Alzolay to win 3-2 and earn a split.
"If you get eight shutout innings from your starter, you like your chances to win that game," Chicago second baseman Nico Hoerner said."A lot of guys in here think they could have changed the outcome of that game." Cincinnati starter Andrew Abbott got help from his defense in the second when Friedl made a running catch on the center-field warning track to rob Yan Gomes of extra bases.
