Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mark Reynolds went 3-for-3, including two
doubles, a solo home run and finished with three runs driven in, as the
Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Milwaukee Brewers, 6-3, in the opener of a four-
game set.
Stephen Drew had two doubles for the D'Backs, who have won two of their last
three games. Conor Jackson and Justin Upton both had an RBI in the win, while
Augie Ojeda tripled and scored twice.
Doug Davis (3-3) got the win as he tossed 5 2/3 innings and gave up only three
runs on five hits. Brandon Lyon earned his 17th save of the year with a
perfect ninth.
J.J. Hardy went 3-for-5 with two doubles and an RBI for the Brewers, who have
dropped two in a row and four of their last five contests overall. Prince
Fielder and Gabe Kapler had an RBI each in defeat.
Dave Bush (4-8) took the loss as he was roughed up for five runs -- four
earned -- on nine hits while walking two batters.
The Brewers wasted little time getting on the board as Rickie Weeks led the
game off with a walk and scored as Hardy followed with a double. Ryan Braun
then grounded out to advance the runner to third and Fielder chipped in an RBI
single.
Arizona answered right back in the home first. Ojeda opened the frame with a
triple and scored as Upton grounded out. Drew then offered a double to right
and held at third as Jackson grounded out before Reynolds tied the game with
a double to left.
The offenses went dormant for the next few innings until Ojeda opened the
fifth with a single. After Upton flied out, Drew made it second and third
with a double and Jackson singled in a run, and another scored on an error
from right fielder Corey Hart. Reynolds kept it going with an RBI double, and
the D'Backs had a 5-2 advantage.
The Brewers inched closer in the sixth. Fielder opened the frame by getting
hit by a pitch. After Hart and Bill Hall were retired, Mike Cameron and Jason
Kendall worked walks to load the bases. Chad Qualls came on in relief of Davis
and walked Kapler, scoring Fielder.
A Reynolds homer in the seventh gave the D'Backs a 6-3 lead.
Lyon came in to pitch the ninth for Arizona and got Weeks to ground out. Hardy
was caught looking at the third strike for the second out and Braun went down
swinging to end the game.
