Braves defeat Cubs on Ferris Bueller's historic day at Wrigley

On June 5, 1985, the Atlanta Braves defeated the Chicago Cubs 4-2 in 11 innings at Wrigley Field, famously featured in the film 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off'. Rafael Ramirez was pivotal for the Braves, driving in all four runs with a two-run home run and a two-run double. The Cubs' Ron Cey contributed with a two-run homer, but it wasn't enough despite Scott Sanderson's strong performance on the mound. This matchup coincided with Celtics legend Dennis Johnson's buzzer-beater victory in the NBA Finals on the same date.
