Down 6-4 as they went to bat in the bottom of the 9th inning, Chicago looked to their hitters to get on base to start a rally. But they ended up getting help from the opposition.

First, after a quick out, a Chicago batter got on base after an error. Then three straight singles later and it was a one run game with one out and the bases loaded.

Chicago's pitcher Worley needed a double play badly, and when a hot grounder made it's way to the second baseman, he was relieved. But when the short stop couldn't catch an easy toss to get the first out, the Whales tied up the game and had new life.

Two innings later, another error on the third baseman allowed a runner on base who then was driven in on a single.

Washington really shot themselves in the foot this game, but Chicago will take it. They've tied the series at 2-2 and we'll head back to Washington to play games five and six.
