Cubs 4, Diamondbacks 2
PHOENIX — Alfonso Soriano led off the fifth and seventh innings with homers as the Cubs ended a four-game skid. It was Soriano's 27th career multihomer game. Carlos Zambrano, who has won nine consecutive road starts, allowed a homer estimated at 455 feet by Justin Upton in the first. But he stranded runners over the next four innings before pitching a perfect sixth.
