Diamondbacks cruise 9-3 as Rockies lose another pitcher

David Peralta, Alek Thomas and Carson Kelly homered, and Merrill Kelly pitched seven strong innings Friday night to lead the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 9-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies, who lost a starting pitcher to injury for the second straight game. Peralta added an RBI double and Thomas a run-scoring triple for the Diamondbacks, who started July strong after being shut out five times last month. Antonio Senzatela (3-5) gave up three runs and four hits in two innings as television cameras showed him trying to stretch out his shoulder when in the dugout.
