PHOENIX -- A night after the D-backs used all of their relievers to pull out an extra-inning win over the Cubs, the bullpen didn't have the same good fortune trying to preserve a close game and keep the team's winning streak intact on Saturday night.
The D-backs bullpen allowed five runs in a 9-6 loss to the Cubs, with hard-throwing right-hander Enrique Burgos giving up a game-winning, three-run homer to slugger Anthony Rizzo in the ninth.
The game was tied at 6 when Burgos came on to begin the ninth. He allowed a one-out single to Dexter Fowler, Kris Bryant reached on an error, and then Rizzo homered to snap the D-backs' five-game winning streak.
