[D’backs.com] D-backs pushed further back by Cubs’ Hendricks - The days in the season are dwindling and the D-backs’ deficit in the standings is growing. It’s not a good combination. On Monday night, the D-backs managed just three hits in 8 2/3 innings against Kyle Hendricks as they fell, 5-1, to the Cubs at Chase Field. With the loss, the third-place D-backs will be at least five games out of first place after the Rockies and Dodgers wrap up their showdown in Los Angeles. A Colorado win would leave Arizona 5 1/2 games out, with 11 games left on the schedule.
