D-Backs over Athletics

The first place Diamondbacks trailed 6-4 after 3 innings, but again fought back to get a hard-earned victory over the tenacious A's. CF Derek Moore went 4-for-5 while C Jason McClure, 1B Robert Lewis and RF Matt Gallant all had 3-hit performances. DH Lonnie Jackson and RF Mike Alcala each had 2-RBI doubles. Snakes pitcher Mike Thompson continues his Cy Young season with his league-leading 6th win, hurling a complete game effort. The A's were led by Rafael Cedillo, who crushed a 3-run homer as part of his 3-hit day. OF JT Turner made a brilliant spin and catch on a drive to the LF fence by Keith Metoyer for the game's top web gem.
