Diamondbacks Clip Orioles in Tight Contest
The Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 9-8, in United League action at Memorial Stadium. Moises Alou received player of the game honors. The 8-year veteran was 2-3 with a home run and 3 walks. He scored 2 runs. The winner was Kelvim Escobar in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Roger McDowell took the loss. Danny Patterson earned the save, his 11th.

Had Bret Barberie not delivered a key base hit in the top of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 3rd, Barberie hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 9-8, in favor of the Diamondbacks.

"This game had a little bit of everything," said Barberie.

Arizona has now won 5 games in a row.
