CHICAGO -- Anthony Rizzo sliced the ball into left field, and it was time to party -- again.

Quite a night for the All-Star slugger.

Rizzo hit a game-winning single off closer Kenley Jansen in the ninth inning, and the Chicago Cubs beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-2 on Monday after raising a World Series championship banner for the first time at Wrigley Field.

In a fitting bit of symmetry, Rizzo had the honors from start to finish. The respected first baseman was picked to begin hoisting the 2016 flag, and then he was the player who carried the World Series trophy onto the field.

"I'll remember this day for as long as I play baseball," Rizzo said.

Pinch-hitter Jon Jay started the decisive rally with a leadoff single against Sergio Romo (0-1). With two outs and Jay on third, Rizzo dumped a 1-1 pitch from Jansen into left field for his first RBI this season.

Wade Davis (1-0) tossed a scoreless inning for his first win with the Cubs, who blew a 2-0 lead before the dramatic finish to their rain-delayed home opener.

"It was a special night," said Jon Lester, who pitched six solid innings. "Definitely something that'll go down in my book as something that I'll remember for a long, long time."

Wet weather pushed back the start of Chicago's pregame festivities, but the sellout crowd of 41,166 didn't seem to mind one bit.

Rizzo heard wild cheers when he started the 2016 flag toward the top of a pole in right-center before handing the reins over to his smiling teammates. Rizzo then emerged from under the bleachers with the championship trophy, drawing another big ovation.

Before November's epic Game 7 win in Cleveland, the Cubs had not won the World Series since 1908. They moved into Wrigley eight years later, making Monday's celebration the first of its kind at the cozy neighborhood ballpark.

"That pregame ceremony, I wasn't expecting to get hit with that many emotions," Rizzo said. "It was amazing."

Los Angeles, which lost to Chicago in the NL Championship Series last year, committed two costly errors and left eight runners on base. Alex Wood, subbing for injured left-hander Rich Hill, lasted just 3 2/3 innings in his first start of the season.

Dodgers outfielder Franklin Gutierrez and third baseman Justin Turner also left with injuries. Gutierrez hurt his left hamstring and Turner exited with a quadriceps injury after his hard slide into second in the eighth led to a run-scoring throwing error by shortstop Addison Russell, tying it at 2.

"I think (Turner) said it was on a dive, so I don't think it's a strain or anything like that," manager Dave Roberts said. "It might have been a charley horse or something like that."

NL MVP Kris Bryant hit an RBI double in the third and Lester drove in a run with a fielder's choice in the fourth. Los Angeles got one back on Corey Seager's double in the sixth.

The Dodgers loaded the bases with no outs in the seventh, but Justin Grimm got Joc Pederson to fly out to right and Andrew Toles bounced into an inning-ending double play.

"We take a lot of pride in coming back and making a push and staying in it," Seager said. "To lose like that hurts, for sure."

FEEL LIKE DANCING

The Cubs showed David Ross on "Dancing With The Stars" on the videoboard in left during the rain delay. Ross retired after helping the Cubs win the championship last season, and his old teammates cheered the former catcher's performance to "Forever Young," his old walk-up song.

IN THE MINORS

Dodgers prospect Julio Urias made his first start of the season with Triple-A Oklahoma City, allowing two runs and two hits in 3 2/3 innings against the Iowa Cubs. The 20-year-old lefty went 5-2 with a 3.39 ERA in 18 games for Los Angeles last year, and the Dodgers want to limit his innings again this season.

"He's close. I think to pick our spots and use him accordingly, and when we do need him, he'll be ready," Roberts said. "But we're not ready to say when that day will be. Sometime the end of the month makes sense."

Also on Monday, the Dodgers acquired minor league right-hander Joe Gunkel from the Baltimore Orioles for a player to be named or cash. Gunkel was designated for assignment Friday.

TRAINER'S ROOM

Dodgers: Gutierrez was thrown out trying to steal in the second and replaced by Scott Van Slyke. ... Hill (blister) is scheduled for a bullpen session Thursday. He could return to the rotation Sunday against Arizona.

UP NEXT

Following an off day, the Cubs get their World Series rings before Wednesday night's game against the Dodgers. Right-hander Brandon McCarthy (1-0, 3.00 ERA) pitches for Los Angeles, and right-hander John Lackey (1-0, 4.50) goes for Chicago.

Egyptian Christians, who endured two deadly church bombings on Palm Sunday for which ISIS claimed credit, have long been targeted for attacks in the Arab world's most populous country.

Interested in Egypt?

Add Egypt as an interest to stay up to date on the latest Egypt news, video, and analysis from ABC News.

Egypt's Christian minority make up about 10 percent of the country's population, according to a recent estimate by the CIA, or roughly 9 million people, and have endured attacks in the region that date back centuries, usually at the hands of Muslim extremists.

Many of Egypt's Christians are Coptic, a centuries-old sect influenced by the apostle and evangelist Mark, who is believed by many to have brought the teachings of Christ to that country in the first century A.D.

Others Christians in Egypt are Catholic or Anglican.

Recently, as Egypt has been caught up in a state of political volatility, the threat of violence has worsened, according to human rights groups.

Egypt's Christians were largely supportive of the military overthrow of former President Mohammed Morsi and were vocally critical of his Sunni Muslim organization, the Muslim Brotherhood, with some concerned that their minority community was not adequately protected under Morsi's rule.

Today, some Arab Christians who spoke to ABC News mulled whether the current government of President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi is able to protect Christians either, especially given the difficulty of detecting lone wolf and suicide attacks.

Here's a look at some of the more prominent attacks that have been waged against Egyptian Christians since the start of the decade:

2010

A gunman killed six Coptic parishioners and an off-duty Muslim police officer in Nag Hammadi, Qena, in January of 2010, according to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a foreign-policy think tank.

2011

The year 2011, when the Egyptian Revolution took place, was also an extremely violent one for Egypt's Christians. It was a phenomenon that led to some feelings of disenchantment and skepticism about the political upheaval going on in the country from members of the country's biggest religious minority.

On New Year's Day of 2011, a car bomb at the Church of the Two Saints in Alexandria killed 23 people who had come there to pray. The New York Times reported on blood "visible high on the front walls of the church" and dismembered bodies strewn along the street outside.

Two Martyrs Church, which was situated in Atfeeh, Helwan, was torched in March, according to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, which noted that both Christians and Muslims died in protests after the arson.

A group of Egyptians clashed in May after a crowd of Muslims attacked a church in Imbaba, Egypt, according to the BBC. Fifteen people, including at least four Copts, died in the clashes, according Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

In October of 2011, mostly Christian protesters took to the streets after an attack on a church in the Aswan province that they blamed on Muslim radicals. They were marching toward the Maspero television building on the bank of the Nile in Cairo when things turned violent. The protesters were first assaulted by attackers in plain clothes before clashes with government security forces broke out, according to BBC News.

The BBC called it "the worst violence in Egypt since former President Hosni Mubarak was ousted," after the Egyptian Revolution, and at least 24 died in the encounter, many of them Christians.

The advocacy group Human Rights Watch issued a statement urging the Egyptian government to investigate crimes against Christian minorities, after the clashes.

"Time and again since February, the Egyptian military has used excessive force in responding to protests," Joe Stork, deputy Middle East director at Human Rights Watch, said in the statement at the time. "The high death toll from the clashes on October 9 shows the urgent need for thorough investigations that lead to accountability and better protection for the Coptic community."

2013

Violence erupted in April of 2013 when five Copts and one Muslim man were shot and killed in al-Khusus, greater Cairo, according to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Two days later, the think-tank reported, mourners were besieged at St. Mark's Cathedral in Abbasiya, Cairo.

In August, Jessi Boulus, a Christian schoolgirl, was shot to death while walking home from a bible study class in Cairo. She was 10 years old, according to BBC News.

"She was my best friend, my everything. Jessi was just becoming a young woman," her mother, Phoebe, told the BBC. "Every woman dreams of becoming a mother, and for 10 years I was lucky enough to be a mum. I'll miss Jessi calling me mum - I know I won't ever hear it again."

2014

Abdel Fattah el-Sisi assumed power in March of 2014, but Egyptian Christians remained skeptical that they were protected from attacks.

Pope Tawadros II of Alexandria, the leader of the Coptic church there, claimed that after el Sisi's rise, attacks on Copts occurred monthly, according to Coptic Solidarity, an activist group devoted to achieving equal citizenship for followers of their religion in Egypt.

2015

In February of 2015, the terror group ISIS published a horrific video showing members of their group, dressed in black, leading a group of Egyptian Coptic Christian migrant workers kidnapped from Sirte, Libya, across the shoreline of a beach that was said to be located in the Libyan province of Tripoli, according to Al Jazeera.

The men, dressed in orange jumpsuits, were beheaded.

Reuters reported that after the release of the horrific video, mourners gathered at the Coptic church in al-Our village south of Cairo, a place from which more than half of the victims hailed.

There, Reuters reported, a man cried because he lacked the money to stop his son from having to work in Libya.

"Oh Kerollos, this is your wedding party ... I'm very sorry my son, because I did not have enough money to keep you from going to this place," he cried.

2016

A December bombing in Cairo's largest Coptic cathedral in December killed at least 25 and wounded dozens more, many of them women and children, according to a report by Reuters.

2017

Egypt declared a state of emergency after twin bomb blasts in churches that were packed for Palm Sunday services Sunday, killing at least 44 people and injuring at least 126 others, according to Egyptian officials.

The attacks, which were claimed by ISIS, followed warnings by the terrorist group that it would escalate attacks on Egypt's Christians.

The first exploded in a Coptic Christian church in the Nile Delta town of Tanta, and the second several hours later at Saint Mark's Cathedral in the coastal city of Alexandria, the historic seat of Christendom in Egypt.

ISIS claimed that the blasts were the work of suicide bombers who detonated explosive vests at the churches.

President el-Sisi said in an address to his people that security forces would step up their efforts to hunt down those responsible for planning the attacks, and that the media should exercise caution in how they cover the ensuing investigation.

Chantal Labib, a 24-year-old school teacher, told ABC News she saw news of the blasts on TV before she went to Palm Sunday services at another church in Heliopolis, Cairo.

"Coptic churches are very distinct," Labib said of the often-ancient buildings that have long drawn many tourists in Egypt. From now on, she said, "the shape of the church and the pews [will] remind me of blood and dead bodies."

Mountain Dew spill at Michigan plant raises environmental concerns.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
An incident at a Michigan Pepsi bottling plant sparked environmental concerns after nearly 7,200 gallons of Mountain Dew syrup spilled into a floor drain and into the plant's internal sewer system when a tank ruptured last month.

Officials with PepsiCo and the city where the plant is located, Howell, said most of the spill was contained after it created "a huge foaming event," the Livingston Daily reported Monday.

Carla Davidson, an analyst with the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, told the newspaper that the magnitude of the spill was "highly unusual." The soda syrup could have a toxic effect on aquatic life if it got into rivers, lakes or streams.

Officials at the plant tried to treat the problem without any help for two days before the system became overwhelmed, the Livingston Daily reported. The DEQ received an alert from the Pollution Emergency Alert System when the syrup, mixed with waste water, sent more than 50,000 gallons of sugar-laced sewage flowing out of the system.

Davidson said the waste water was mostly contained at the water detention basin at the plant, while a small amount went into a ditch behind Key Plastics. Howell City Manager Shea Charles told the paper that did not get into the public spill system.

There are still questions that remain in the spills aftermath, Davidson said. She said she wanted to know why the tank holding the syrup ruptured and if any other tank could face a similar issue.

"As far as impact to the environment, I think Pepsi is cleaning it up, and we'll be working with them to prevent discharges like this from happening in the future," Davidson said. "There was not a release to surface water that we know of, so that's also a positive."
