....
Pirates won by 1.5 games over Cardinals
The Cubs were just 65-92 and wallowing in last place in the East Division, 19 games behind co-leaders Pittsburgh and St. Louis (both 84-73), when they hosted the Cardinals in the middle game of a weekend series on Saturday, Sept. 28.
Cubs starter Rick Reuschel was yanked in the fourth inning after issuing back-to-back 2-out walks. Dave LaRoche walked the first batter he faced, then served up a 2-run double and a 1-run single.
But LaRoche shut out the Cardinals over the next 4.1 innings, while the Cubs got a solo homer from Billy Williams in the fourth, a go-ahead bases-loaded triple from Bill Madlock in the sixth and 4 more runs in the seventh on 2 singles, 3 errors, a wild pitch and a sacrifice fly.

On Sept. 16, he did it again.
No Cub has done it since.
Sosa drove in
6 runs as the Cubs won those games, and they were the only runs the Cubs scored.
No Cub ever has had 7 or more RBI in a game in which the Cubs scored exactly that number of runs.
Besides Sosa, only
6 of the Cubs runs. But they lost that game, 16-6, on April 29, 1960.
....
5 runs, all driven in by a single player.
The first of those players was
Bill Nicholson, at Cincinnati on April 26, 1942.

Surfacing first in the form of a YouTube video for the catchy track Do You Believe? Poolside were soon gaining local and national attention, with DJs like James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem, techno legend Derrick May, and disco don Todd Terje spinning these tracks at events and a growing online following. Throughout 2011 Poolside continued making waves with a sound called daytime disco through tracks like their cover of Neil Young s Harvest Moon and original tunes. In2012 Poolside worked on a remix for longtime disco punks The Rapture and held fans over with a new single and video for a song called Slow Down as they prepared to release their debut album. That album, Pacific Standard Time, was self-released in July of 2012.
