Cubs Handle Diamondbacks, Grab 8-3 Win
In the 8-3 Chicago win over Arizona, the impact of Anthony Rizzo was substantial. Rizzo, who is tied for 5th in the NL in total bases with 102, went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Chicago pitcher Clark Griffith got the win, upping his record to 4-3. Zac Gallen got the loss. Picking up the save was Randy Myers, his 1st.

In the bottom of the sixth, Chicago right fielder Sammy Sosa put his team on top. With one out and a runner on 2nd, he hit his 9th home run of the year. Arizona pitcher Zac Gallen served it up. Just like that, the Cubs were ahead, 3-2.

Rizzo said his wife shared good advice with him before the game. "She said, 'Don't allow this game to make you mad.' When I thought about it, I realized this is just a game. I was able to relax at the plate."

The third-place Cubs have a record of 22-28.
