Diamondbacks capture first series at home

Arizona Diamondbacks


Finally, the Arizona Diamondbacks win a three-game series at home.

And, they do it by beating the Dodgers.

Arizona (18-28) take 2 of 3 from Los Angeles (23-22), winning the rubber game today at Chase Field, 5-3, thanks to the hitting from Chris Owings, A.J.Pollock, Cody Ross and Eric Chavez. Owings and Pollock continued their hot hitting as the two D'backs combine for 6 hits in 10 trips to the plate, while Ross and Chavez belt home runs as Arizona wins a series at home for the first time this year.

Starter Josh Collmenter (2-2) pitched 5 1/3 innings and picked up the win, while Addison Reed comes on in the ninth to pick up the save -- his 12th of the season. Former Diamondback Dan Haren (5-2) took the loss. Haren went six innings, but allowed 10 hits and four earned runs.
