Cashner (8-3) was scratched moments before the first pitch as thunderstorms passed through the area. When the start of the game was announced for 5:10 p.m. — an hour and six minutes delay — Cashner was renamed the starter. He finished with six strikeouts and one walk.

Machado and Reyes homered on consecutive pitches from rookie Dakota Hudson (6-4) in a seven-run second, when only one of the runs was earned due to the right-hander’s throwing error.
Paddack (5-4) threw six brilliant innings to win for the first time in five starts dating to May 20. He allowed a leadoff home run to rookie Tommy Edman on his fourth pitch, but then allowed only a single the rest of the way. He struck out eight and walked one.

Escobar had three hits. Adam Jones added two and walked twice for the Diamondbacks.
Stephen Vogt hit a three-run homer off Arizona closer Greg Holland in the ninth. Holland, the third reliever used by manager Torey Lovullo in the inning, retired the next three batters for his 12th save.
