D-Backs move back into first in NL West

LOS ANGELES -- David Dellucci and Rod Barajas hit two-run homers as the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 7-5 Saturday to reclaim first place in the NL West.

The defending World Series champion Diamondbacks, who last led the division on June 21, moved a half-game ahead of Los Angeles by winning their third in a row over the Dodgers. The four-game series at Dodger Stadium concludes Sunday.

Brian Anderson (5-7) gave up five runs on eight hits in seven innings, and Byung-Hyun Kim pitched the ninth for his third save in as many days. He has 25 saves in 28 chances this season.

Giants 6, Rockies 1

SAN FRANCISCO -- Jeff Kent went 4-for-4 and drove in two runs as San Francisco beat Colorado for its fifth straight win.

Jason Schmidt (5-3) scattered three hits over eight innings as the Giants nearly held the Rockies scoreless for the second straight game.

The Rockies have lost four straight.

Cubs 9, Marlins 2

CHICAGO -- Matt Clement pitched three-hit ball into the eighth inning against his former team as Chicago and an angry Sammy Sosa beat Florida.

Clement (7-6) struck out nine and outpitched the player he was traded for in March -- Julian Tavarez, who drew the ire of Sosa by plunking him in the back with a pitch in the fourth inning. Benches emptied briefly, but no punches were thrown and order was quickly restored.

Tavarez (7-5), sent to the Marlins along with three other players for Clement and Antonio Alfonseca, went four innings. He allowed nine hits and seven runs -- five earned.

Astros 2, Reds 1

HOUSTON -- Craig Biggio hit a go-ahead RBI double in the seventh inning, and Pete Munro pitched Houston past Cincinnati for its fifth straight victory.

Lance Berkman got his major league-leading 82nd RBI for the Astros, who have won eight of their last nine and 11 of 13.

The loss was Cincinnati's fourth in a row and seventh in nine games.

Phillies 7, Mets 6

NEW YORK -- Travis Lee hit an RBI single off Scott Strickland (6-6) in the 12th inning as Philadelphia overcame another bullpen meltdown to beat New York.

After closer Jose Mesa couldn't hold a 6-4 lead in the ninth, the Phillies bounced back to win it in the 12th.

Hector Mercado (1-2) pitched out of a jam in the 11th, stranding the winning run at third base.

Expos 6, Braves 3

MONTREAL -- Brad Wilkerson, Vladimir Guerrero and Cliff Floyd each hit solo homers in the fifth inning, and Bartolo Colon pitched his first complete game in the National League to win his Montreal home debut.

All three homers came off Tom Glavine (11-5), who surrendered three homers in the same inning for the first time in his major league career.
