Arizona Diamondbacks (11-13) at Milwaukee Brewers (12-12), 2:05 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: Arizona - Yusmeiro Petit (0-2, 8.62) Milwaukee - Dave Bush (1-0, 4.50)

Strong starting pitching has put the Arizona Diamondbacks on the verge of winning a series in Milwaukee for the first time in six years. The club will shoot for a third consecutive victory of the previously-hot Brewers in this afternoon's finale of a four-game set from Miller Park.

Arizona halted the Brewers' four-game win streak with a 5-2 triumph on Friday, then received a gem from ace Dan Haren in last night's 4-1 decision over the Brewers. The All-Star right-hander yielded just four hits and struck out a season-best 11 batters over eight innings to win his third straight start.

Chris Snyder led the Diamondbacks at the plate with a pair of hits, including a two-RBI double that capped a three-run fifth inning. Justin Upton finished 2-for-4 with a solo homer and two runs scored to help Arizona win for the fifth time in its last seven games.

Prince Fielder singled in the lone run for Milwaukee, which had won eight times in a span of nine contests prior to its current two-game skid. Starting pitcher Braden Looper (2-1) threw seven innings in a losing cause, allowing all four Arizona runs on six hits.

The trio of Haren, Jon Garland and Max Scherzer has surrendered just three runs over a combined 20 1/3 innings during the first three games of this series. That outstanding work by those starters has put the Diamondbacks in position to take a series at Miller Park for the first time since the team won two of three matchups from the Brewers from September 19-21, 2003.

Prior to this series, Arizona had dropped 12 of its last 16 games in Milwaukee and suffered a three-game road sweep at the hands of the Brew Crew last season.

The Diamondbacks will send Yusmeiro Petit to the mound in this afternoon's finale. The young right-hander will need to improve off his recent mound trips to match the efforts of his teammates in this series, however.

In three starts and one relief appearance during the season's first month, Petit has been tagged for 17 runs (15 earned), 23 hits and four homers over a 15 2/3-inning span. His most recent outing was the worst of the bunch, as Petit surrendered seven runs on eight hits and walked three before being removed after 3 2/3 innings of an 11-3 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday.

The 24-year-old Venezuelan, who is taking the place of injured ace Brandon Webb in the Arizona rotation, is 0-1 in three career games (2 starts) against the Brewers, but has recorded a 2.25 ERA during that stretch. In his lone matchup with Milwaukee last season, Petit spun six innings of one-run ball but was left with a no decision of a 4-3 D-Backs loss on July 2.

Petit will be opposed this afternoon by Dave Bush, who will be seeking a return to his exceptional form of two starts back. The right-hander took a no- hitter into the eighth inning of an April 23 win at Philadelphia and held the defending world champion Phillies to one run and two hits in picking up his only win of this season.

Bush wasn't nearly as sharp in Tuesday's home start against Pittsburgh, a game in which he permitted five runs (4 earned) in a five-inning no decision.

That performance raised the 29-year-old's ERA to 5.56 in a pair of starts at Miller Park this season, quite a contrast to Bush's showings at home in 2008, when he amassed a 6-4 record and a solid 3.50 ERA over 17 games (16 starts).

Bush does own a 4-1 career record in five starts versus the Diamondbacks, with the lone blemish coming in Phoenix last June. He was reached for five runs (4 earned) and nine hits through five innings in that game.

In injury news, Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun sat out Saturday's tilt with tightness in his lower back, and it's unclear whether he'll be available for today's game. The All-Star slugger also missed a good portion of spring training with a strained intercostal muscle.

Milwaukee is 11-6 overall against Arizona since the start of the 2007 campaign.

Florida Marlins (14-10) at Chicago Cubs (12-11), 2:20 p.m.

Florida Marlins (14-10) at Chicago Cubs (12-11), 2:20 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: Florida - Ricky Nolasco (1-2, 6.92) Chicago - Carlos Zambrano (2-1, 4.64)

The Chicago Cubs used excellent pitching and power hitting to win Saturday's matchup with the Florida Marlins. There's a chance the team will get both of those qualities when Carlos Zambrano participates in this afternoon's finale of a four-game series between the clubs from Wrigley Field.

Zambrano, a recipient of the National League's Silver Slugger award honoring the top-hitting pitcher in two of the past three seasons, showed off his two- way skills in Chicago's 11-3 rout of Arizona this past Tuesday. The excitable Cubs hurler held the Diamondbacks to three runs over seven solid innings on the mound and went 3-for-4 with a homer and two RBI at the plate.

The three-time All-Star, a career .240 hitter with 17 home runs to his credit, has been rather ordinary as a pitcher so far in 2009. Zambrano has a 4.64 earned run average through his first five starts and allowed three or more runs in all but one of those outings.

The native Venezuelan will be facing a Florida squad he has historically fared very well against. Zambrano is 4-1 with a 3.05 ERA in nine regular-season starts against the Marlins and 2-0 with a 2.31 ERA over five matchups with the Fish at Wrigley Field.

Zambrano will have a tough act to follow in teammate Ted Lilly, who also made a big impact as both a pitcher and hitter in Saturday's 6-1 triumph over the Marlins.

Lilly (3-2) limited Florida to one run on five hits and racked up a season- high 10 strikeouts without a walk over the first eight innings to lead Chicago to a second straight win in this series. The veteran southpaw also delivered a two-run double in the third inning that staked the Cubs to a commanding 3-0 lead.

Ryan Theriot, who smacked a go-ahead grand slam in Friday's 8-6 victory over Florida, had a two-run homer in yesterday's contest and finished 2-for-5 for the Cubs, while Derrek Lee added a solo blast on the afternoon.

Marlins starter Anibal Sanchez (1-3) served up both homers and was tagged for six runs on nine hits in just four innings of work.

Cody Ross accounted for Florida's only run with a solo homer off Lilly in the fifth inning. The loss was the ninth in the past 12 games for the Marlins, and the team has gone 3-6 on the road during that span.

However, Florida has won in seven of its past 11 visits to Wrigley Field .

Former Cubs farmhand Ricky Nolasco will take the ball for Florida this afternoon. The right-hander produced a 15-8 record during a breakthrough 2008 campaign, but he's struggled greatly through the opening month of this season.

Nolasco is coming off a five-inning no decision against the New York Mets on Tuesday in which he surrendered four runs and walked three. The effort raised his season ERA to an unwanted 6.92, and he gave up at least four runs in four of his five April starts.

The 26-year-old was selected by the Cubs in fourth round of the 2001 draft and traded by Chicago to Florida prior to the 2006 season as part of a deal that sent outfielder Juan Pierre to the Cubs. His first major league victory came against Chicago at Wrigley Field in a relief role on April 26, 2006.

Nolasco also defeated the Cubs in his lone start against his one-time organization. That also came in 2006, with the California native firing seven innings of one-run ball in a 9-1 Marlins' win.

Before Sunday's game, the Cubs will retire the No. 31 uniform number that was worn by two of the franchise's most accomplished pitchers, Hall of Famer Ferguson Jenkins and four-time NL Cy Young Award winner Greg Maddux.

Jenkins won 167 games over 10 seasons with the Cubs and earned the NL's Cy Young Award in 1971. Maddux captured the honor while with Chicago in 1992 and recorded 133 of his 355 career victories in a Cubs uniform.

Colorado Rockies (9-13) at San Francisco Giants (11-11), 4:05 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: Colorado - Josh Hammel (0-0, 5.09) San Francisco - Barry Zito (0-2, 5.24)

Despite stumbling on Saturday, the San Francisco Giants have an opportunity to win a fifth consecutive series in today's rubber match of a three-game set with the Colorado Rockies from AT&T Park.

The Giants overcame a sluggish start to their 2009 campaign by ripping off eight victories in 10 games, including a 3-2 decision over the visiting Rockies on Friday, but the club was cooled off considerably by Colorado's Jason Marquis yesterday afternoon. The offseason addition fired a complete- game five-hitter and the Rockies belted three home runs en route to a 5-1 triumph that evened this series.

Marquis (4-1) yielded one run and five hits while walking just one in going the distance for the first time since May 9, 2007. The right-hander, acquired from the Chicago Cubs via trade over the winter, is now 4-1 with a 3.31 earned run average in his first five starts as a Rockie.

Ryan Spilborghs paced Colorado with a 3-for-4, two-homer, three-RBI performance at the plate, while Brad Hawpe added a solo blast to help the Rockies to a fourth win in their last six contests.

All three long balls came off of Matt Cain (2-1), who allowed all five Colorado runs and walked four in a six-inning stint.

Pablo Sandoval foiled Marquis' shutout bid by hitting a solo homer to lead off the bottom of the ninth.

San Francisco, which hasn't dropped a series since being swept in three games by the National League West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers from April 13-16, will look to Barry Zito today in hopes of getting back on track. Although the quirky left-hander has yet to notch his first victory of 2009, he's pitched well in two straight starts after being roughed up in his initial two outings of the season.

Both of Zito's good efforts have come on the AT&T Park mound, including an April 22 stint against San Diego in which he twirled seven shutout innings of an eventual 1-0 Giants' win. He backed that up with Monday's solid performance against the rival Dodgers, a game in which the former American League Cy Young Award winner allowed three runs and just five hits through 6 1/3 frames.

Zito's strong showing at home bodes well for his prospects this season, considering he went 3-11 with a poor 5.93 ERA in 16 starts at AT&T Park in 2008.

The 30-year-old owns a 2-2 record with a 2.57 ERA through seven lifetime starts versus the Rockies. He split a pair of decisions against Colorado last year, but surrendered only five runs -- four earned -- and 10 hits in 16 innings over those two games.

Jason Hammel makes his second start of the season for the Rockies in the finale and will be seeking an improvement off his most recent time out. The right-handed swingman shut out San Diego through the first two innings this past Monday at Coors Field, but was tagged for five runs (4 earned) before being removed with no one out in the fourth.

Hammel was acquired by the Rockies from Tampa Bay just prior to Opening Day and began this season in the bullpen, where he allowed two runs in 6 2/3 innings over a trio of appearances. The 26-year-old, who has never previously faced San Francisco, was inserted into the rotation when Colorado placed Franklin Morales on the disabled list on April 22.

Colorado went 11-7 against the Giants in last year's season series and won six of the nine meetings between the teams held in San Francisco.

San Diego Padres (11-13) at Los Angeles Dodgers (17-8), 4:10 p.m.

San Diego Padres (11-13) at Los Angeles Dodgers (17-8), 4:10 p.m.

Probable Starting Pitchers: San Diego - Chad Gaudin (0-0, 0.00) Los Angeles - Chad Billingsley (4-0, 2.14)

The Los Angeles Dodgers take aim at establishing a franchise record for consecutive home wins to start a season when the National League West front-runners wrap up a four-game series with the sliding San Diego Padres this afternoon at Dodger Stadium.

After edging the Padres in 10 innings on Saturday, Los Angeles moved to 9-0 as the host on the young season, which ties the club's best-ever start at home. The record was established all the way back in 1946, when the Dodgers were still located in Brooklyn and playing their games at historic Ebbets Field.

Andre Ethier kept the current Dodgers' streak alive by singling home the deciding run with no outs in the bottom of the 10th to give his team a 2-1 win.

After Rafael Furcal and Orlando Hudson opened LA's half of the 10th with singles off Luke Gregerson (0-2), Manny Ramirez was intentionally walked to load the bases and set up a force play. Ethier then followed with a shot off the right-field wall that easily sent home Furcal.

The win was the second in as many nights for the Dodgers in their final at- bat. On Friday, Russell Martin drew a bases-loaded walk in the bottom of the ninth to lift Los Angeles to a 1-0 decision.

Like Friday's tilt, last night's game featured a terrific pitching duel. San Diego's Chris Young held the Dodgers to one run on six hits over the first seven innings, while three Los Angeles relievers combined for 4 2/3 scoreless frames after replacing starter Randy Wolf.

The Padres' lone run came when Edgar Gonzalez, the game's second batter, slugged a solo home run off Wolf in the first inning.

San Diego has now lost four in a row and 10 of its last 12 games, and the team's sputtering offense will have to face one of the NL's hottest pitchers in Chad Billingsley today.

The Dodgers' young ace put together a tremendous April in which he posted a 4-0 record and an outstanding 2.12 earned run average in five starts, while lasting at least six innings in every one of those mound trips. Billingsley's four victories is presently tied with Cincinnati's Bronson Arroyo, St. Louis' Joel Pineiro and Colorado's Jason Marquis for the most among NL hurlers this year.

Billingsley's string of four straight winning starts came to an end Tuesday in San Francisco, although the right-hander still put forth a good showing. He held the rival Giants to three runs -- two earned -- and struck out eight over 7 1/3 innings, but wound up with a no decision in an eventual 5-3 Dodgers' triumph.

The 24-year-old made his first appearance of the season against the Padres on April 8 and allowed a pair of runs on just two hits to help Los Angeles to a 5-2 win. That performance moved Billingsley to 6-3 in 14 lifetime meetings (10 starts) with San Diego, and he's amassed a sound 2.43 ERA over that span.

Fresh off an impressive debut with his new club, Chad Gaudin will take the mound for the Padres in today's finale.

The journeyman right-hander was promoted from Triple-A Portland on Monday and started San Diego's 4-3 win at Colorado the following day. He did not factor in the final outcome, but surrendered only three hits and struck out five over five shutout innings.

Gaudin went 9-5 with a 4.40 ERA over 50 appearances, including six starts, with Oakland and the Chicago Cubs last season, and recorded a career-best 11 wins in 34 starts with the Athletics in 2007. He was released by the Cubs just prior to Opening Day and signed by the Padres organization on April 12.

His only career encounter with the Dodgers came in relief while with Oakland in 2006, with Gaudin allowing a run in one inning of work.

These teams split a four-game set in San Diego to open this season, but the Dodgers have won nine of the last 12 meetings between the teams.
