The Arizona Diamondbacks took care of business in the first matchup of their ten-game homestand.
It was a solid pitching performance from Merrill Kelly that shut down the Nationals. Kelly allowed just one run and struck out 10 batters in the seven innings he pitched. The Nationals lone run came in the form of a solo shot by Luis Garcia in the first inning.
