Can Diamondbacks' Pitching Outmaneuver Cubs at Wrigley Field?

The Arizona Diamondbacks are set to face the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field on April 20, 2025. As the D-backs prepare for this encounter, their recent performances suggest a promising outlook against the Cubbies. The upcoming game will be broadcasted on ARID.

Diamondbacks' Recent Performance

In their recent games, the Diamondbacks have demonstrated a solid pitching performance. On April 13, they secured a victory against the Milwaukee Brewers with an impressive display of pitching prowess. The D-backs allowed only 2 runs and maintained an earned run average (ERA) of just 2.0 in that game. Their bullpen was particularly effective, boasting an ERA of 0.0 and striking out batters at a rate of 18 per nine innings.

This strong showing from both starters and relievers could be pivotal as they head into Chicago to face the Cubs. With such reliable arms in their arsenal, AZ has a good chance to stifle CHC's offense.

Cubs' Challenges

The Cubs have had mixed results recently and might find it challenging to break through AZ's formidable pitching lineup. In previous matchups against other teams, CHC has struggled with consistency in scoring runs when facing top-tier pitchers like those from Arizona.

However, playing at home provides some advantage for CHC as they are familiar with Wrigley Field's unique conditions which can sometimes favor hitters due to its wind patterns and dimensions.

Key Factors for Success

For AZ to capitalize on their strengths against CHC effectively:

1) Maintaining Control: The D-backs must continue controlling walks while keeping strikeouts high – something they've excelled at recently.
