The Arizona Diamondbacks gun for their fifth consecutive win as they march into the middle game of their series with the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday at PNC Park. The D-Backs are off to a rousing start this August, outscoring the Pirates in a high-scoring game 9-8 on Friday. Newly acquired slugger Josh Bell made his presence felt in his debut, blasting a solo homer that tied the game at 7-7 in the 7th inning. Geraldo Perdomo and Ketel Marte added a run each in the next two innings to secure their eighth win in 10 games. Thanks to their recent success, Arizona has cut down the Dodgers’ lead to four games as the battle for the top spot in the NL East Division gets a lot more interesting. Meanwhile, the Pirates have gone 5-5 in their last 10 assignments, which keeps them in the hunt for a wild card spot in the National League. Pittsburgh (55-54) are still seven games behind NL Central leader Milwaukee Brewers (62-47), but trail the St. Louis Cardinals (56-54) – who occupies the No.2 spot in their division – by half a game.
