Diamondbacks Need Extra Innings to Top Royals, 8-4
A good performance from designated hitter Sean McElderry helped the Arizona Diamondbacks defeat the Kansas City Royals, 8-4. McElderry went 3 for 6 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 4 for the Diamondbacks. Gannon Drier converted his 19th save in 23 tries. Arizona is now 45-55, Kansas City 40-59.

McElderry had a game-changing home run in the top of the tenth. On a 1-2 sinker from Jose Fernandez, he banged a grand slam home run to right-center, giving the Diamondbacks a 8-4 lead. It was the 7th home run of the year for McElderry.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," McElderry said. "We did a good job of that today."
