Diamondbacks Close Down Marlins

     The Arizona Diamondbacks picked up a 4-0 shutout victory over the Miami Marlins at Marlins Park on Thursday. The D-Backs, who took six of seven games from the Fish in the season series, finished their 10-game road trip with an 8-2 record. The Marlins have fallen in six of their last nine games.
     In the first inning, Arizona(47-34) powered out front. Daniel Descalso grounded into a fielder's choice for Paul Goldschmidt to score.  Nick Ahmed lined a double down the left-field line which scored Jake Lamb.
     The Diamondbacks made it a three-run margin in the top of the second inning. After D-Backs starting pitcher Zack Greinke singled up the middle of the diamond, he stole second base and then scored two batters later on a Goldschmidt base hit to shallow left.
     Miami(32-50), who began the second half of their regular season, gave up an additional run in the sixth inning. Greinke drove in Ahmed with a single into right field.
