Arizona Diamondbacks 5, Chicago Cubs 1
At least the Diamondbacks didn’t make Cubs fans suffer as they got rid of them fast, sweeping them in three games. The Diamondbacks jumped the Cubs quick in this baseball game and knocked out Cubs starter Rich Hill after only 3 innings. Hill gave up 6 hits, 3 earned runs, walked 2 batters and whiffed 3. Bobby Howry was the standout out of the bullpen for the Cubs as he worked 2 innings allowing only 1 hit while whiffing 4 batters. Kerry Wood didn’t look too good as he allowed 2 hits and an earned run in only 1 inning.
The Cubs didn’t hit the ball too well against the Diamondbacks as Derek Lee (2 for 4), Mark DeRosa (2 for 4, 1 run) and Jason Kendall (1 for 4, 1 RBI) were the only hitters that did any damage in the last game of the season for the Cubs. The D-Backs win this series 3-0 and send the Cubs back to the drawing board.
