[AZ Central] Cubs outlast D-Backs in 15-inning series finale - Nick Ahmed’s fly ball hung in the air in left field, and for a brief moment on Sunday evening it seemed as if an already improbable game had taken another unlikely turn. It already had lasted 15 innings. More than 500 pitches had been thrown. Several battalions of baserunners had been stranded. “I thought,” Ahmed said, “maybe there was a chance.” Instead, the ball came to rest in Ben Zobrist’s glove, and the Diamondbacks shuffled back to their clubhouse with their most emotionally draining loss of the season.
