PETCO Park, San Diego, CA

Christian Walker - Launches rare homerWalker went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a strikeout in a 6-2 loss to San Diego on Saturday.

ImpactWalker tagged San Diego starter Yu Darvish for a long home run in the second inning to provide Arizona's only two runs of the game. The long ball was Walker's fifth in 71 games this season and was his first since June 26 as he's slugging a disappointing .355. This comes after smashing a combined 36 home runs in 199 games over the last two seasons with a .471 slugging.

Brett de Geus - Falters in lossDe Geus (2-1) lost Saturday's 6-2 defeat at the hands of the Padres, allowing three runs on two hits and a walk without recording an out.

ImpactDe Geus entered a 2-2 game in the bottom of the eighth and allowed three straight baserunners before being removed. All three Padres eventually came around to score as the righty was handed his first career loss. The three runs allowed were only one fewer than the four he'd permitted in 12.2 innings since joining Arizona in June.

Taylor Widener - Holds Pads to 2 runsWidener got a no-decision in Saturday's 6-2 loss to San Diego, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks with seven strikeouts in five innings.

ImpactThe two runs against Widener came on solo home runs in the first and second innings, and he was able to escape a bases-loaded no-out jam in the fourth with the help of a double play. He's been subpar in five starts since joining the rotation in July, though Widener has lost just one of those games.

Manny Machado - Two hits, homerMachado went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and RBI and two strikeouts in a 6-2 triumph over Arizona on Saturday.

ImpactMachado took Arizona starter Taylor Widener deep to left for his 21st home run of the season in the first inning and singled and scored in the eighth to put San Diego in the lead for good. It was a nice rebound performance for the All-Star third baseman, who went hitless on Friday, and he's now recorded multiple hits in four of his last 11 games.
