Goldschmidt gets his 103rd RBI of the season



During Arizona's 6-1 win over the San Diego Padres last night, Paul Goldschmidt knocked in a run on a ground out and tripled in a run to give him 103 RBI for the season. Goldy has a long way to go to catch Matt Williams and Luis Gonzalez. Williams knocked in 142 runs in 1999, and Gonzalez did the same in 2001.

Arizona improved to 67-63 with its win in the series opener over the Padres as Brandon McCarthy (3-8) pitched seven strong innings and picked up his first win since May 28. Martin Prado continues to produce as he goes 1 for 3 and knocks in three of the Diamondbacks' six runs.

Former Diamondback Ian Kennedy (5-9) gets the starting nod tonight for the Padres, while rookie David Holmberg (0-0) takes the mound for the D'backs.
