Arizona right-hander Zack Godley (1-0), who was recalled from Triple-A Reno earlier in the day to make his second spot start of the season, gave up one run and four hits in seven innings. Godley struck out six and walked one. He got 14 ground-balls outs, including three double plays, and one flyout.

The Tigers (16-16) did not get a hit after pitcher Matt Boyd's infield single to lead off the third.

Boyd (2-3) gave up eight hits and four runs (three earned) in six innings. He struck out six and walked three.

Justin Upton singled with one out in the second inning and scored thanks to consecutive singles by Jim Adduci and McCann. Godley got out of the inning with a double-play grounder to third.

Ahmed homered with one out in the third, and the Diamondbacks scored again in the inning on two-out singles by Pollock, Owings and Paul Goldschmidt and a passed ball.
