CINCINNATI (AP) —place teams is off to a tough start.Archie Bradley struggled during Cincinnati’s four-run eighth inning http://www.yankeesfanproshop.com/authentic-don-mattingly-jersey , and the Diamondbacks lost 6-3 to the Reds on Saturday night.Arizona dropped back-to-back games for the first time in more than two weeks. The Diamondbacks also remained in a tie for the NL West lead with the Los Angeles Dodgers, who lost 3-2 at Colorado.Eduardo Escobar hit a two-run drive for his first homer since being acquired in a trade with Minnesota, and David Peralta also connected.“We are frustrated, no doubt” Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said. “We feel like we played good enough to win the game. It’s frustrating when you put all your chips in and lose the hand.”Bradley got the last two outs of the seventh and Peralta’s 20th homer gave Arizona a 3-2 lead in the eighth. But Cincinnati responded in the bottom half.Bradley (3-4) hit Eugenio Suarez leading off the inning and walked Curt Casali with two outs. Pinch-hitter Tucker Barnhart then lined a 3-2 pitch into the gap in left-center, and Billy Hamilton and Joey Votto followed with RBI singles off T.J. McFarland.“I’ve always had trouble with Archie Bradley, since the lower minors,” Barnhart said. “I faced him at every stop. He’s a good pitcher and I respect the hell out of him. He’s gotten me more times than I’ve gotten him.“I was looking for something out over the plate that I could get to the outfield for Geno to score.”In their last six series against first-place teams, the Reds have won five and split one.Amir Garrett (1-2) got the final out of the eighth for the win. Raisel Iglesias pitched the ninth for his 23rd save and second in two nights.Arizona starter Robbie Ray allowed two runs and four hits in five innings in his fifth straight no-decision.The Diamondbacks weren’t necessarily looking at this trip through Cincinnati, Texas and San Diego as a chance to get hot, Ray said.“You’ve got to take advantage of every part of the schedule,” he said. “I don’t think this part carries any more weight.”Reds starter Matt Harvey fanned seven in seven innings for his highest strikeout total since he had seven on June 10 Aroldis Chapman Jersey , 2016, with the Mets. He also hit an RBI single in the fourth.“Harvey got better as the game went on,” Reds interim manager Jim Riggleman said. “He’s done that quite a bit. He gave up some hard-hit balls early and around the fourth or fifth inning he settled in. He got in a little trouble but managed his way out of trouble. His best inning was the seventh.”SLOW STARTThe first pitch was delayed 40 minutes by rain for Great American Ball Park’s 11th delay of the season, totaling 13 hours, 53 minutes. That includes the delay before the April 3 game against the Cubs was postponed.FAST STARTThe first play of the game was Peralta’s fly ball to Dilson Herrera, who was making his first professional start and just his third appearance in left field. He caught the routine fly ball.RAY OF HOPERay’s one-out double in the fifth was his first hit of the season in 27 at bats.TRAINER’S ROOMDiamondbacks: Hamilton’s eighth-inning hit grazed McFarland, but he stayed in the game.UP NEXTArizona right-hander Zack Godley (12-6) and Cincinnati right-hander Luis Castillo (6-9) pitch in the series finale. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy was out of options after emptying his bench of position players three innings earlier and with the potential winning run at third base in the 12th inning. Then, he turned to his best hitting pitcher.It worked perfectly.Madison Bumgarner had the first game-ending hit of his career, a pinch-hit single that drove in Gorkys Hernandez, and lifted the Giants to a 5-4 victory over the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night.The Giants recorded their 10th walk-off win of the season, and won for just the fifth time in 22 games.“It’s tough this time of year to come and compete and play as hard as you ordinarily would but this is the time you have to look yourself in the mirror and go out there and do your job Didi Gregorius Jersey , earn your paycheck,” Bumgarner said “As soon as we ran out of guys, I got my cleats and my jersey on.”San Francisco blew a 4-3 lead in the ninth when Wil Myers doubled and scored off Tony Watson. But the Giants rallied in the 12th after going hitless the previous four innings.After Hernandez tripled off Rowan Wick (0-1), Bochy called for Bumgarner.Bumgarner took a called strike and then lined a sharp single past third baseman Myers to drive in the winning run. It was Bumgarner’s fourth career pinch-hit and first since July 31, 2016. He has six hits and three RBIs in 41 at-bats for a .146 average. He has a career batting average of .182.“He smoked it, didn’t he?” Bochy said.Mark Melancon (1-3) retired six batters to earn win.Hunter Pence homered and scored three times in what was likely one of his final games with San Francisco. Gregor Blanco had a two-run single and Evan Longoria added an RBI double.Freddy Galvis had four hits and a walk, continuing his offensive surge for San Diego. Eric Hosmer added a two-run single.At 63-95, the Padres are assured of their worst record since 2008, when they finished 63-99.San Diego stranded a runner at third in the 11th and at first and third in the 12th. The Padres also matched their season high of three errors, two by shortstop Javy Guerra.“It’s a tough one for us,” San Diego manager Andy Green said. “We gave away some runs on the defensive side and it’s tough. We’ve played relatively clean defense for a while and we didn’t really do that today.”Pence http://www.yankeesfanproshop.com/authentic-greg-bird-jersey , who reached on an error and scored in the first, homered off Robbie Erlin in the fourth and received a standing ovation from the announced crowd of 36,063.The 35-year-old outfielder also singled and scored the go-ahead run on Gregor Blanco’s double off Robert Stock (1-2) in the seventh. Blanco had been 5-for-32 with runners in scoring position.Recognized as one of the driving forces behind the Giants’ World Series titles in 2012 and 2014, Pence is scheduled to become a free agent in the offseason.TRAINER’S ROOMGiants: Panik didn’t start but entered as a pinch-hitter in the seventh. Catcher Nick Hundley was hit in the back of the head on a follow-through swing by Austin Hedges in the 12th inning, but remained in the game.UP NEXTSan Diego RHP Luis Perdomo (1-6, 7.56) makes his first start since July 27 in the series finale Wednesday as part of manager Andy Green’s plan to bullpen the game. Perdomo has made two relief appearances after being recalled from the minors earlier this month. RHP Casey Kelly (0-2, 2.04) makes his third start for the Giants and first against his former team. Kelly pitched for the Padres in 2012 and 2015.__
