Belle Excels, But Diamondbacks Win
Washington left fielder Albert Belle had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Belle belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice, even as Arizona beat the Senators, 6-5. Belle was named the player of the game despite the loss. The save went to Danny Patterson, his 1st this season. Things have gone south in a hurry for the defending champion Diamondbacks, who notched only their 2nd win in 5 games.

It could have been a different outcome for Arizona, had it not been for Bobby M Estalella, the top prospect . Estalella contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the ninth inning to put Arizona up, 6-5.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Estalella said.
