Padres 4, Diamondbacks 2: Speedy Spangenberg swipes a win

Put Cory Spangenberg in red spandex and slap a lightning bolt on his chest, because tonight he looked like the fastest man alive. The second baseman went 3-for-3 with two stolen bases and two runs as he led the Padres to victory over the Diamondbacks tonight. He was backed up by Tyson Ross, who picked up his second straight win against the snakes by holding them to a pair of runs on two hits in six innings of work.

Sloppy fielding gave the Friars an early lead, with Derek Norris reaching base in the first inning courtesy of Paul Goldschmidt's flub.
