ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS

Inside the Box: Cubs done after one

Apr 29, 2011, 4:11 AM | Updated: 5:21 am

After every Arizona Diamondbacks game we’ll examine the
box score and provide you with instant analysis. So it’s
time to go Inside the Box for April 27, 2011: Diamondbacks 11, Cubs 2

The Good:

The Diamondbacks’ offense was apparently unstoppable. Cubs’ starting pitcher Ryan Dempster did not make it through the first inning as the D-backs drove in a total of seven runs on four hits in the first inning.

The Bad:

Barry Enright pitched a decent game, but still managed to allow two runs on five hits for a 5.76 ERA. He may have gotten the “W”, but he still needs some more work to get him out of his funk.

The Funky:

Stephen drew had his first career grand slam and also set a career record for number of RBIs in a game with 5.
