The Arizona Diamondbacks got a stellar performance from pitcher Mike Harkey, who handcuffed the Detroit offense en route to a 5-1 win at Bank One Ballpark. Kelvim Escobar was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 2 of 6 save opportunities. The Tigers, at 36-79, have lost 4 straight games.

Bobby M Estalella had an important at-bat with two out in the bottom of the third, when he hit a 2-run home run. His 28th home run of the season put Arizona on top, 3-1.

"I really like what we did out there today," Estalella said after the game.
