Arizona Diamondbacks scraped by the Atlanta Braves 2-1 on Saturday night, thanks to a wild throwing error that handed them the game. Rookie Jose Fernandez laid down a perfect bun single in the second inning with runners on first and second and Braves' starter Bryce Elders scooped it. Up but fired way past first base, letting both Gabriel Moreno and Nolan Aronato trot at home with unearned runs. Michael Soroka picked up the win for Arizona, going five solid innings where he allowed just one run on four hits, three walks and three strikeouts. The bullpen locked it down from there, with Taylor Clark, Jonathan Lawisiga, Juan Marillo and Paul Sewald, each tossing clean 1-2-3. Frames Seawald nailing his third save of the year. Elder took the tough loss despite not surrendering a single earn run in his 13 innings this season. He went seven strong, giving up four hits, one walk and fanning eight, but that fielding

Things went quiet after the fifth no runners reached base for either side. Atlanta's Mauricio DuBone ripped a 105 mile per hour lead off single that inning, but they glanced off Arizona shortstop, Gerardo Padomo's glove, forcing a quick equipment swap. The Braves sit at six and three despite the skid, a far cry from last year's brutal zero and seven start that sank their season. Diamondbacks stay hot at home, building momentum early.
