Sparks Helps Diamondbacks Beat Braves, 6-2
Arizona first baseman Mike Sparks was a significant contributor in his team's 6-2 triumph over the Atlanta Braves. He was 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for Arizona. Arizona bumps their record to 45-39 with the win.

Arizona used a well-timed hit by Bobby Schmidt to capture the win. The third baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Diamondbacks ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

Schmidt called the win "a collective effort."
