					| Diamondbacks Dump Mets, 4-2 |  
					| Arizona Diamondbacks starter Joe Butler was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the New York Mets, 4-2. Butler went 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 1 hit, walked 3, and struck out 6. His record improves to 1-0.  The first-place Diamondbacks, at 107-55, now lead their division by 14½ games. 
 With no one out in the bottom of the seventh, Joel Kunkler had a game-changing hit. The Diamondbacks left fielder slammed a run-scoring  single off Apostolos Tsatsos, making the score 1-0, Arizona.
 
 Kunkler said afterward that his team has grown over the course of the season, adding: "It feels good when a plan comes together."
