Arizona Diamondbacks (69-43) 0 0 0 3 2 0 0 2 X 7 7 1
Diamondbacks Score Late, Stun Cubs, 7-5
Arizona second baseman Andy Swaim made his presence felt in the 7-5 Diamondbacks triumph over the Chicago Cubs. Swaim was 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Mario Valdivia earned the save, his 5th. Arizona, at 69-43, is 6 games up in the National League West Division.

Arizona took a 7-5 lead on Mike Mentzer's 13th double of the season. The 2-run double, which Mentzer hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Chicago pitcher Mike Alexander shaking his head.

"You can't take yourself too seriously," Swaim told the Arizona Chronicle. "But at the end of the day, we do play to win ballgames."
