Starting pitcher Justin Steele was a major factor in the 6-1 Chicago Cubs triumph over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Steele yielded 1 run over 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 2 hits, walked 5, and struck out 8. His record improves to 11-5. The National League Central Division-leading Cubs have a record of 85-63.

Chase Strumpf, who is tied for 4th in the NL in bases on balls with 81, chipped in a 2-run home run for Chicago in the top of the fifth. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 2 RBI.

"Obviously, you want to go out there and be good every time out," said Steele. "I take the ball every day with the same mindset."
