Yasmany Tomas went 3-for-6 with a double, a pair of singles and two runs scored in Saturday’s loss to the Padres. Shelby Miller was the story for Arizona though, as he lasted just 1 2/3 innings due to an injury (hand), although he had already given up two runs on two hits and three walks before exiting.

Melvin Upton hit a walk-off two-run home run off Rubby De La Rosa in the 14th inning last night to propel the Padres to a 5-3 victory over the D-Backs. He ended the game with a three hits and a stolen base and is now hitting .293 on the season. Matt Kemp also hit his fourth home run of the season and finished 1-for-4 on the night.
OUR PICK: The Diamondbacks are now just 2-5 in their last seven games overall and are 0-5 in their last five games versus a left-handed starter. They’re also 3-7 in their last 10 games during Game 3 of a series and 2-5 in Corbin’s last seven starts on Sunday. With Doug Eddings behind the plate, the home team is also a perfect 5-0 when Arizona is involved and 4-1 in his last five Sunday games behind the plate for San Diego.
