Diamondbacks grab opener in San Francisco

The Arizona Diamondbacks are still plugging away.

Paul Goldschmidt goes 2 for 5 and knocks in his 105th and 106th RBI of the season as the Diamondbacks edge the Giants 4-2 in the series opener in San Francisco tonight.

It's been a while since the D'backs have seen those kind of RBI numbers. Goldy needs to knock in 36 more runs to tie D'back greats Matt Williams (1999) and Luis Gonzalez (2001) for the most single-season RBIs by an Arizona Diamondbacks' hitter. Both players own the franchise record with 142.

Wow! Those are Miguel Cabrera numbers!

Arizona improves to 71-68 with its victory tonight. There are just 23 games left in the regular season.

Now, if Goldschmidt could get hot and drive in 37 runs the rest of the way, he'd have the D'backs' RBI  record and chances are Arizona would be playoff-bound.

Yes, I'm dreaming. Now, I think I'll go to bed and see if I can sleep.
