Patrick Corbin threw 2 2/3 innings of scoreless relief before Daniel Hudson came on to get Wil Myers to pop out to first for his fifth save. Corbins performance was the latest in a series of strong efforts after he was demoted to the bullpen.He just feels like his stuff is back to where it was before (Tommy John) surgery, Hale said. He got tremendous life up to 96 today. His breaking ball, you saw Myers take the swing where he spun around. Its really good to finish this way. Hell fit right into our rotation the top two or three spots there next year.Jackson (5-7) gave up five runs and seven hits in five innings to take the loss.The crowd for the matchup between the bottom two teams in the NL West was announced at 42,651, the second-largest of the season at home for the Diamondbacks.

The Diamondbacks are a game behind San Diego with two to play.Goldschmidt put Arizona up 3-0 in the third inning when he hit Jacksons 2-0 pitch over the porch in right-center for his 24th home run, and 94th and 95th RBI.But Diamondbacks starter Braden Shipley couldnt hold the lead. The Padres tied it 3-3 in the fourth. Manuel Margot doubled in a run and scored on Schimpfs two-run home run.Arizona regained the lead in the sixth. With two outs, Brandon Drury doubled and scored when Owings homered on Jacksons 2-0 pitch.
