"The Cubs loaded the bases against Kelly with nobody out in the bottom of the 5th, and Michael Busch at the plate. The powerful first baseman hit a line-drive smash into the right field corner for a three-run triple to make it a 6-2 score."
"Little bit of a shaky start for Boyd, but very good after that: 6 IP, 2 R, 4 H, 5 K, and 1 BB."
"The Cubs' lineup is so deep that anyone can do major damage at any position in the order. There truly are no easy outs with this group."
The Cubs scored eight unanswered runs to defeat the Diamondbacks 8-4, completing a three-game sweep. Arizona initially took the lead with a two-run homer by Gabriel Moreno. Chicago responded with an RBI single and took the lead with a two-run homer by Moisés Ballesteros. Michael Busch's three-run triple in the fifth inning extended the Cubs' lead. Additional runs came from Busch and Carson Kelly. Despite a late two-run homer from Arizona, the Cubs maintained control throughout the game, showcasing their deep lineup and strong pitching.
