Diamondbacks sweep Padres

Get out the broom!

 he Arizona Diamondbacks rolled by San Diego 6-1 today at Chase Field and made it a three-game sweep of the Padres, and in doing so increased their lead in the NL West to four games. Can you believe it?

The Giants lost again this afternoon, falling to the Houston Astros, 4-3, in San Francisco. Mind boggling! The Diamondbacks are 16 games over .500 with a 75-59 season record. Come on down Colorado Rockies. The Diamondbacks will keep the broom in the dugout, just in case there's another three-game sweep.
