Gregory Polanco's outfield stumble gives Cubs extra-inning win (GIF)


With the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the 12th of Friday's 2-2 game at Wrigley Field, Chicago Cubs batter Matt Szczur hit a routine fly ball to short right field. Or so it seemed...until Pittsburgh Pirates right fielder Gregory Polanco slipped on the outfield grass, lost his footing and fell to the ground, along with the baseball.



That's all it took to give the Cubs the victory, with Szczur getting credit for a walk-off RBI single.

One television broadcaster summed it up best: "Un-freaking-believable".
