D'backs hand Arroyo first defeat of season
Estrada hit three doubles, drove in a run and scored twice and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Cincinnati Reds 3-1 for their seventh straight win. Estrada doubled home the tying run in the second inning, then later in the inning came home with what proved to be the decisive run.However, he tweaked a quad injury that he's been battling since fouling a pitch off his leg against San Diego about two weeks ago.
Estrada, who raised his average to .321, will sit out the series finale Sunday in favor of Chris Snyder and then get a second day off with Arizona idle on Monday."He's got that upper quad and every time he hits a ball in the gap it seems to be barking on him," Arizona manager Bob Melvin said. "It seems like just when it gets better, he hits another ball in the gap."Estrada's hitting made a winner of Claudio Vargas , who rebounded from first-inning struggles to record his second consecutive home win.
