Diamondbacks Clip Blue Jays, 4-3
The Toronto Blue Jays got a superb performance from pitcher Barry Zito, but the Arizona Diamondbacks still won the game, 4-3. Zito threw 6.1 innings of shutout ball. Reliever Jose Veras picked up the win. His record improves to 1-0. Roberto Batista took the loss. The Diamondbacks now have a record of 45-61 with the win over Toronto.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Bernie Williams came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Toronto pitcher Roberto Batista, he hit a first pitch splitter for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Arizona on top, 4-3.

"We did a lot of really good things and it was a good win," said Diamondbacks manager Matt Williams.
