April 11, 1972. Chicago Cubs 4, Pittsburgh 3 (12 innings)

 Both teams got good performances, but had to run through their bullpens, but the Cubs' pen held out just a little longer as they beat the Pirates in 12 innings, 4-3.  The big difference in the game was that Fergie Jenkins lasted 8 innings while Dock Ellis had to come out in the 6th, meaning the Pirates ended up having to go deeper in their bullpen.  

Dave Cash was the story for the Pirates.  He doubled to lead off the 5th and scored, tying the game at 1-1.  After the Cubs took a 2-1 lead, Cash came up in the 6th and doubled in 2 runs with 2 out to give Pittsburgh a 3-2 lead.  In the 9th Cash followed Richie Hebner's lead off walk with his 3rd double of the game, putting runners at 2nd and 3rd with nobody out, setting them up for an insurance run or two. But Phil Regan intentionally walked Gene Clines to load the bases.  He then struck out Gene Clines.  Leo Durocher brought in lefty Larry Gura to face Vic Davalillo and got him to hit into a 3-2-3 DP with the infield in. 

In the bottom of the 9th, the Pirates sent in Luke Walker to hold the lead after pinch-hitting for ace reliever Dave Guisti. Billy Williams singled in Don Kessinger with 1 out to tie the game at 3. After speedy Jose Cardenal advanced to third on a fly ball, Joe Pepitone lined one to Vic Davalillo's left. However, Davalillo got off an incredible throw to nail Cardenal at the plate and send the game into extra innings.

Neither team mounted a rally until the bottom of the 12th.  New Pirate reliever Bob Veale walked the bases loaded with one out and Ken Rudolph drove in Billy Williams with the winning run.  Joe Decker capped a 4 inning scoreless stint by the Cub bullpen for his first win.

Cubs Top Pittsburgh, 4-3
Chicago starter Fergie Jenkins pitched well against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Wrigley Field 1938-1978. The right-hander led his team to a win, 4-3. Chicago reliever Joe Decker picked up the win to move to 1-0. Bob Veale suffered the loss. Chicago, now 3-1, is setting the league on fire so far.

The Cubs procured the win, in large part because of catcher Ken Rudolph. In the bottom of the 12th, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"Nice win," said Rudolph. "Not sure what else you want me to say."
