Drew Pops it Out

Stephen Drew just hit a two-run homer off Brian Fuentes that just barely reached the seats in rightfield near the line. It's only the third home run Fuentes allowed this year, two of them coming this month. The long ball gives the DBacks a 5-3 lead. The Dodgers are losing 1-0 in the third, so there's a chance Arizona can cut the Dodgers' lead to 2 1/2 games.

Update: Chad Qualls gives up a walk and a hit, but holds on to keep the Rockies off the board and the Diamondbacks win 5-3. The Giants take a 2-0 lead in the top of third against the Dodgers, but Manny just hit a three-run homer to Los Angeles on top. The opposite field shot down the rightfield line was the 15th Manny hit with the Dodgers. The three RBI give him 47 in 47 games since moving to Los Angeles.

Darren Sutton just mentioned that was the first home run by a left-handed batter against Fuentes since Barry Bonds, Sept. 13, 2006 - if I heard that correctly.
