Waldschmidt Walks It Off Again | Chicago Cubs News

Rookie Ryan Waldschmidt just turned heads again—this time with a walk-off homer off a slider in the bottom of the ninth, rallying the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 5-4 win over the Cubs. It’s his second clutch walk-off blast in weeks, proving he’s a game-changer when it matters most. Since returning from Triple-A, he’s been a force at the plate and in the field, lifting Arizona’s offense as they race for the final Wild Card spot. With key rivals—the Phillies and Padres—losing on the same night, the D-backs are now just one game behind the playoff cutoff. With a .276 average and rising stats, Waldschmidt is becoming indispensable as the season hits its climax—and Arizona’s playoff hopes are soaring.
