Goldschmidt reaches triple digits!
Paul Goldschmidt hit his third grand slam of the season -- a Diamondbacks record --to lead Arizona to a 5-2 win over the Reds in Cincinnati tonight. Goldy became the first player in the National League to reach triple digits this year. His home run tonight was his 31st of the season and the four RBIs gives him 100 for the season.
While Goldschmidt was busy doing his thing, the D'backs ace Patrick Corbin was doing his. Corbin (13-3) pitched a complete game, struck out 10 and allowed six hits as Arizona improves to 65-59 and keeps pace with the LA Dodgers, who also won 6-4 in Miami tonight.
Martin Prado hit his 12th home run of the season in the fourth inning to give the D'backs an early 1-0 lead.
The win over the Reds evened the four-game series at 1-1. Brandon McCarthy (2-7) gets the starting nod tomorrow night for the Diamondbacks.
