Kubel hits three homers

Jason Kubel blasted three home runs and the Arizona Diamondbacks rolled over the Houston Astros 12-3  tonight at Chase Field.  Wade Miley struck out nine, walked two and allowed just one earned run in seven innings of work as the D'backs make it two in a row over Houston. Arizona (46-48) has scored 25 runs in two games and will try to sweep the series tomorrow afternoon when they send Josh Collmenter to the mound in search of their 47th win of the season, which would pull them within one game of the .500 mark. Go, Diamondbacks!

D'back notes: Kubel has 20 home runs this season and has driven in 70 runs. He becomes the seventh player in Diamondback's history to hit three homers in one game. Miley moves to 11-5. He allowed just four hits and threw 107 pitches.
