Webb Leads D'backs Past Giants 4-1



Brandon Webb fired eight strong innings and also hit a two-run single as the Diamondbacks topped the Giants, 4-1, in the rubber match of a three-game set at AT&T Park. Webb struck out five while allowing just three hits and one run to move to 4-and-0 on the year. Brandon Lyon tossed a perfect ninth for his third save. Eric Byrnes and Orlando Hudson also knocked in a run each for Arizona, which improved to a big league-best 11-and-4 on the season. Eugenio Velez plated the lone run for the Giants, who have dropped four-of-six. Barry Zito gave up four runs, three earned, on five hits and five walks over six frames to fall to 0-and-4. Zito has lost four straight for the first time in his career.
