<h3>Cubs look to continue winning ways against Diamondbacks</h3>

Arizona (50-48) at Chicago Cubs (51-44) 1:05 pm EDT

CHICAGO (Ticker) -- One of baseball hottest teams, the ChicagoCubs look to continue their strong play when they continue theirweekend series with the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Chicago has won three straight games and are 29-13 since June 3to nearly close the gap in the National League Central.

Jacque Jones had a pair of RBI singles and Aramis Ramirez addeda three-run homer as the Cubs beat the Diamondbacks, 6-2, inFriday's series opener. Coupled with the Milwaukee Brewers'loss to the San Francisco Giants on Friday, Chicago trails by 21/2 games.


However, victories have been elusive for Cubs starter Rich Hill(6-6, 3.70 ERA) this past month, but he did pick up a win in hislast start Monday.


After going 0-2 in five previous starts, the 6-5 lefthanderallowed two runs and four hits in eight innings of a 3-2 victoryover San Francisco. Lefthanded hitters are batting just .202against Hill this season.


Micah Owings (5-5, 4.92) takes the mound for Arizona, which haslost five of six games overall and nine of its last 10 on theroad. The 24-year-old righthander has lost each of his lastfour starts, posting a 7.83 ERA over that span.
