Lobaton’s single gave the Nationals runners on first and second base with two outs in the eighth inning, down 9-8 in a wild Game 5 of the National League Division Series.
Lobaton appeared to get back to first base only to have the call challenged by Cubs manager Joe Maddon. Upon review, the safe call was overturned, and the inning ended.
