The D-backs took two of three games from the Padres with both teams hanging around the fringe of the National League wild-card race. Arizona pushed back to .500 at 59-59 while San Diego fell to 56-62.
DiamondbacksIt’s no coincidence that when the All-Star’s bat hit the skids midway through the season, Arizona’s record started to plummet.
The Diamondbacks trailed 4-2 in the seventh, but Gurriel — pinch-hitting for Jose Herrera — hit a full-count, changeup over the left field fence off Nick Martinez to tie the game. It was the first pinch-hit homer of the 29-year-old’s career. Paul Sewald worked the ninth for his second save in two days, working around a two-out walk to Jake Cronenworth. Gary Sánchez struck out to end the game.The Padres jumped all over D-backs starter Brandon Pfaadt in the first, pounding five hits for 3-0 lead. The right-handed Pfaadt — one of the team’s top prospects — settled down after that rough start. He made it through 5 2/3 innings, giving up three runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out a career-high eight.
The Padres padded their lead in the seventh on Cronenworth’s double down the left-field line off Kevin Ginkel that scored Manny Machado, making it 4-2.
