How about those Diamondbacks?


The Arizona Diamondbacks get a strong outing from Patrick Corbin (3-0) and move into a first-place tie in the NL West with the Rockies as they beat Colorado in the final game of the four-game series 4-2 at Chase Field today.

Arizona wins three of the four games to pull even with the Rockies. Both teams sport identical 15-10 records. Corbin allows nine hits, but just two runs today as he strikes out five Rockies and doesn't walk a batter in 6.2 innings. The bullpen comes on to shutdown the Rockies as Matt Reynolds, Heath Bell and J.J. Putz allow just one hit the rest of the way.

Geraldo Parra goes 2 for 4 today, including a triple and lifts his season batting average to .320.

The San Francisco Giants (13-12) head to Chase Field and begin a three-game series with the Diamondbacks tomorrow night.
