Arizona Gets Riveting Walk-Off Win
The Arizona Diamondbacks grabbed a win, 6-4, over the Tampa Bay Rays at Chase Field. Arizona left fielder Robby Bethel was 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. Arizona reliever Arturo Ventura was the winner. His record is now 2-6. The losing pitcher was Tim Berigan. The Diamondbacks go to 43-64 with the win.

The game was decided with two out in the bottom of the ninth. With Arizona trailing 4-3, Bethel jumped on a fastball from 23-year old left-handed pitcher Merlin Penney and hit a 3-run home run to left. With one swing, the Diamondbacks had a walk-off win.

"I've been criticized for being a slacker, but the one thing I do care about is winning," Bethel told the Arizona Chronicle.
