Goldy on Fire!


Paul Goldschmidt did it again!

Last night, Goldy hits a two-run homer in the top of the ninth inning at Dodger Stadium as Arizona knocks off Los Angeles 5-3, setting up a chance for a Diamondbacks' sweep tonight.

Arizona (18-15) will send Wade Miley (2-1) to the mound tonight against Clayton Kershaw (3-2) and you can bet Goldschmidt will be batting third in the lineup for the Diamondbacks.

The young man is on fire since manager Kirk Gibson inserted him in the third spot in the lineup. In his last nine games, Goldy is 16 for 35 with four homers and 11 RBI during that stretch.

The Dodgers with their huge bankroll are now 13-19 and have lost six games in a row and find themselves in last place in the NL West. The Diamondbacks remain 1 1/2 games out of first place. Colorado leads the division with a 19-13 record, while San Francisco sits in second place at 19-14.
