The Diamondbacks are heading to the National League Championship Series for the first time since 2001 after sweeping the Cubs behind a 5-1 victory in Game 3 at Wrigley Field on Saturday night. Chris Young got the ball rolling with a home run on the first pitch of the game, and Arizona’s defense turned four double plays to back winning pitcher Livan Hernandez.
