The Diamondbacks have taken two of three in the series following last night’s 8-2 thumping of the Padres. Eugenio Suarez belted his 29th home run of the season in the fourth inning and Geraldo Perdomo smacked a grand slam in the fifth to pace the offense. Brandon Pfaadt allowed but two runs over eight innings to earn his ninth win of the season.
