Brandon Webb won his fourth consecutive decision to improve to 4-0, becoming the first MLB pitcher to four wins this season. In a game that featured little offense, the Diamondbacks had just a little bit more to win by a score of 4-1.
The story of the day was Webb’s masterful performance. He threw 8.0 innings, and allowed just three hits, two singles and a double. He only walked two, and struck out five. He also had two RBI’s to helps his cause. Brandon Lyon also notched his third save of the season.
Stephen Drew was the only player with two hits in the game as offense was hard to come by.
Barry Zito took the loss to drop to 0-4 already in the young season. He gave up four runs, three earned, in 6.0 innings on only five hits. He walked five, which proved to be costly.
The Diamondbacks took the series with the win and open up their first series against the Padres at Chase Field tomorrow. Dan Haren will get the ball and face Chris Young.
