PHOENIX — Yasmany Tomas singled home Chris Owings with two outs in the ninth inning, and the Diamondbacks rallied to give the Cubs their first loss of the season, 3-2 on Friday night.

Welington Castillo singled off ex-Diamondbacks starter Trevor Cahill (0-1) and Owings, the pinch runner, took second on a groundout. Tomas singled to left and Owings raced home well ahead of the throw.

Brad Ziegler (1-0) pitched a perfect ninth for the victory.
