Dan Haren helped his game winning cause by having six quality innings and producing three hits with the bat. Connor Jackson had four hits with two runs and Adam Dunn contributed with three RBIs. Chris Young also performed well by providing three hits and driving in four Arizona runs with one home run. Additionally, John Whitesell hits hist first major league home run.

The race continues to narrow as the Diamondbacks square off against the St. Louis Cardinals this week before finishing up the season in Phoenix.

One item of concern is the energy of the team after watching the view of the bench for the majority of the game. Drew’s two run shot seemed to spark the bench a bit but, there definitely needs to be more energy coming from the team. In a critical weekend of baseball for the Diamondbacks, they remain behind the Los Angeles Dodger for the lead in thier division.

The division remains close as the Dodgers come from behind at home to beat the San Francisco Giants.
