D-backs let down in 10th By Michael Schwartz / MLB.com
Eric Byrnes led off the game with a homer, Chris Young added a solo shot in the second and Mark Reynolds launched a pinch-hit big fly in the fourth, but the bats went cold down the stretch against the Dodgers bullpen. Doug Slaten gave up a two-out homer in the 10th to take the loss.
