Diamondbacks Suffer 12-6 Setback
Chicago starter Steve DiDomenico pitched well against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. The right-hander led his team to a win, 12-6. Chicago reliever Chris Ishii picked up the win, upping his record to 6-5. David Mendoza shouldered the loss. The second-place Diamondbacks have lost 4 consecutive games.

Chicago used the clutch hitting of Kevin Norton to capture the win. The pinch hitter drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Cubs ahead, 7-5. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

"When this team comes together and plays the way we can, we can compete with anyone," said Norton. "I think we're going to keep proving that."
