Rodriguez Dominates, Lawlar Homers as Diamondbacks Shut Out Cubs 2-0

Eduardo Rodriguez delivered a stellar performance on the mound, striking out nine batters over seven innings to lead the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 2-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs. Rodriguez, now with a 14-4 record, secured his fourth consecutive win, outdueling Cubs starter Matthew Boyd.

The Diamondbacks' offense provided just enough support, with Jordan Lawlar hitting a crucial home run. The combined two-hitter was completed by relievers Brandyn Garcia and Juan Morillo, who earned his second save, sealing the shutout for Arizona. Despite strong pitching from the Cubs' Matthew Boyd, their offense could not break through against the Diamondbacks' potent pitching.
