08/29/2010 - San Francisco, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mark Reynolds and Adam LaRoche each homered and Daniel Hudson continued to impress with seven sturdy innings as Arizona downed San Francisco, 11-3, in the second of three meetings at AT&T Park.
Hudson (4-1) yielded a pair of runs on four hits, walked two and struck out six in lasting at least seven frames for a sixth straight start for the D'Backs, who have claimed the first two games of the series after losing seven straight to the Giants.

Barry Zito (8-10) absorbed the loss in a second straight sub-par start after giving up a season-high nine runs -- seven earned -- on six hits, five walks and two hit batters over 3 2/3 innings to match his shortest start of the year.
