After a rather disappointing loss to the D-backs the Cubs were looking for a bounce back and all it took was a third inning where the Cubs exploded for 5 runs.
That inning had everything. A balk leading to a run, a double leading to more runs and a Bote home run leading to, you guessed it, more runs.
Yu was Yu, walking a few guys but also striking out the side. He is the ultimate Rorschach Test for Cubs fans.
Bote goes deep again and has been hitting on a tear ever since coming back from the birth of his recent child and the Cubs go up 7-0 in the fifth. Rizzo even gets into the action hitting a HR which made the score 8-1, the Cubs continued to put the hurt on the Diamondbacks.
In fact Rizzo had 3 extra base hits in just this one game. The Cubs just looked good in all elements of the game, no surprise they won.
