Diamondbacks 5 Milwaukee 4


The Arizona Diamondbacks collected just six hits at Chase Field tonight.

Fortunately, three of the six were home runs as Jason Kubel hit his fifth of the year, Miguel Montero hit his seventh and Didi Gregorius went yard for the fifth time this season as the Diamondbacks beat the Milwaukee Brewers, 5-4.

Arizona got a another three scoreless innings out of its bullpen as Will Harris (2-0), Heath Bell, Tony Sipp and Brad Ziegler get the job done, after starting pitcher Randall Delgado goes the first six innings, allowing four runs on eight hits. Delgado struck out five and walked one.

Arizona improves to 50-44, maintain its 2 1/2 game lead over the Dodgers, and go after a sweep of the Brewers tomorrow afternoon when they send Ian Kennedy (3-5, 5.31 ERA) to the mound to face Wily Peralta (6-9, 4.82 ERA).

The six hits by the Diamondbacks were six more than the Padres were able to muster in San Diego tonight. San Francisco's Tim Lincecum hurled a no-hitter tonight as the Giants beat the Padres, 9-0. Lincecum struck out 13 and threw 148 pitches. He walked four and hit one batter.
