07/02/2008 -
Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - J.J. Hardy hit a pair of home runs as Milwaukee
clubbed Arizona, 8-6, in the second contest of a four-game set at Chase Field.
Jeff Suppan (5-6) benefited from Hardy's big night, collecting the victory
after surrendering five runs on nine hits with two walks in five frames. Joe
Dillon hit a two-run home run with two runs scored and Corey Hart ended 3-
for-5 with two runs scored for the Brewers.
Arizona still hasn't won back-to-back games since June 18-19 after Randy
Johnson (4-7) was hit for seven runs and eight hits over 3 2/3 frames. Conor
Jackson did most of the damage, as he finished 3-for-4 with a home run, two
runs scored and three RBI.
The walking wounded lost two more key players prior to the contest. Eric
Byrnes, saddled with hamstring injuries most of the season, was placed on the
15-day disabled list with a left hamstring injury and Chris Snyder joined him
with a left testicular fracture suffered when a foul ball struck him in
Monday's game. Robby Hammock and pitcher Connor Robertson were recalled to
take the vacated roster spots.
Hardy hit his first home run, a two-run spot, as part of a three-run first
frame. Hart singled, stole a pair of bases and scored on Mike Rivera's base
hit.
Jackson's RBI single put Arizona on the scoreboard in the home half of the
frame before Milwaukee put another three-spot up in the second frame. Jason
Kendall singled to begin the inning then Dillon drilled a two-run homer. Hardy
followed with a solo shot, his eighth of the campaign.
Hardy was again in the middle of the action in the fourth, walking and
stealing second in front of Hart's run-scoring base hit.
Arizona sneaked back into the game with a pair of runs in the fourth and fifth
frames. Jackson singled, Chad Tracy walked and Chris Young singled to load the
bases in front of Miguel Montero's run-scoring hit. Augie Ojeda's RBI
groundout cut the deficit to 7-3.
Jackson's two-run home run in the fifth made the score 7-5. Rivera's double
followed Hart's double, leading to another run for an 8-6 game. Arizona put up
its last run in the bottom of the eighth on Young's RBI groundout.
Salomon Torres pitched the ninth for his 14th save.
