The Arizona Diamondbacks game on Saturday against the Chicago Cubs was delayed due to inclement weather in Chicago, the Cubs announced on Twitter.

The new time for first pitch has reportedly been scheduled for 12:50 p.m.

The D-backs had been on a roll, winning the first two games of the series after dropping two of three to the Cubs last weekend in Arizona.

Arizona smashed seven home runs in a 10-6 win over the Cubs on Friday.

Madison Bumgarner is scheduled to take the mound for Arizona while Justin Steele is the scheduled starter for Chicago.
