The Arizona Diamondbacks turned back the Chicago Cubs, 9-8, at Chase Field. Mario Soto, in particular, had a fine performance. He went 2 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Reliever Jose Rodriguez picked up the win. His record improves to 2-1. George Poirier took the loss. The Diamondbacks have an impressive 83-47 record.

The game came to a dramatic end. In the bottom of the ninth, with Arizona trailing 8-7, Eric Klasek hit a fastball from George Poirier for a 2-run home run, giving the Diamondbacks the walk-off win.

"Win or lose, we always try to grind it out and stay even-keeled," Soto said in reaction to the win.
