Austin Hays and Ramon Urias each went 2 for 4 with a run scored.

In a homecoming of sorts, starter and Arizona native Kyle Bradish (10-6) gave the team a quality start, a start that was witnessed by his family and many friends. The right-hander and now the third pitcher with double-digit wins, allowed 2 runs on 4 hits, walked 3, struck out 6 and hit a batter over 6.0 innings. Bradish was the winning pitcher.

DL Hall continued to perform in a relief role by walking 1 and striking out 3 in 1.1 innings.
