Rizzo sprayed 10 fouls balls into the Wrigley Field stands to stay alive, working to a 2-2 count after quickly picking up two strikes. Rizzo finally bested Ponce de Leon on the 14th pitch from the right-hander — a 96-mph fastball — rocketing the ball into the right-field bleachers. Rizzo’s game-tying homer in the sixth inning set off the 35,112 fans in a rocking Wrigley.
