Arizona Diamondbacks at Chicago Cubs
Final
Recap
CHICAGO -- Michael Busch had two hits and two RBI, helping Colin Rea and the Chicago Cubs top the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-5 on Friday. Alex Bregman added a run-scoring double as banged-up Chicago posted its third consecutive win. Rea (4-1) scattered eight hits over 5 1/3 innings. Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner departed in the second because of neck tightness. Hoerner is off to a terrific start this year, batting .297 with four homers and 26 RBI while playing his usual stellar defense.
