PHOENIX (AP) -- Ryan Roberts hit an inside-the-park home run, Justin Upton ended a long drought with a three-run shot and the Arizona Diamondbacks tied a franchise record with six homers during a wild 14-10 win over the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday. Miguel Montero hit a two-run homer, Aaron Hill connected for the third straight game, and Jason Kubel and John McDonald each had a solo shot to match the team record set twice before. Montero had four RBIs. Upton's first homer since May 23 snapped a 5-all tie in the fifth inning and Roberts had the highlight of a big-hitting day for the Diamondbacks, legging out a shot that caromed off the wall in center in the sixth for the eighth inside-the-park homer in franchise history.

Is There Hope For The Diamondbacks?

Via Fangraphs  |  June 20, 2012
The first three months of the season have not been kind to the Diamondbacks. An extra-innings loss on Tuesday brings the defending National League West champions’ record to 33-35, nine games out of first place. However, Arizona is better than their record suggests. They are one busted slump, one injury return, and one trade away from contending for a playoff spot. The Diamondbacks...
