A pair of 9th-inning homers off closer Wade Davis lead the Diamondbacks to a 10 – 8 win over the Cubs at Wrigley Field. Paul Goldschmidt connects for his third long ball of the game with one out, and J.D. Martinezfollows with another dinger. Goldschmidt has 6 RBIs on the day, and his performance is almost matched by Cubs C Willson Contreras, who also drives in 6, but with only two home runs. The back-and-forth game starts 90 minutes late because of rain and is interrupted twice, for 35 minutes in the 2nd and another 30 minutes in the 9th.
