After dropping their first two series of the year, the Cubs (4-5) finally notched a series win against a scrappy D-Backs (5-5) team. Despite more heroics from Anthony Rizzo, however, Chicago was unable to complete a three-game sweep at Wrigley losing 9-7, via MLB The Show 20.
The Cubs took an early lead in the 3rd inning when Kris Bryant doubled and scored on a groundout from Javy Báez. Starter José Quintana was solid the first few innings before hitting big trouble in the 4th. Walks to Nick Ahmed and Ketel Marte set the table for former Cardinal Carson Kelly who blasted a hanging curve for a three-run jack.
