Reynolds rings Bell in ninth for Haren

Boxing champion Manny Pacquiao may have thrown out the ceremonial first pitch on Tuesday night, but it was Mark Reynolds who provided the knockout punch at PETCO Park.


Reynolds slammed his 42nd home run, a two-run shot off Heath Bell in the top of the ninth inning, to snap a 2-2 tie and give the D-backs and pitcher Dan Haren a 4-2 victory over the Padres.

Eric Byrnes accounted for the first two D-backs’ runs. He hit his sixth home run off Padres starter Wade LaBlanc in the third inning to give Arizona a 1-0 lead and then doubled home Brandon Allen in the seventh, tying the game at 2.

Reynolds hopeful he can return

Mark Reynolds was just happy to be out of his hotel room on Wednesday night. Thursday night, though, he expects to be back in the starting lineup.



The D-backs’ third baseman, who has been dealing with a nasty case of the flu, was held out of Sunday’s game in Houston, spent Monday’s off-day in bed at the team hotel and was so sick Tuesday he received an IV of fluids and did not even come to AT&T Park.

“Basically, the worst thing you can imagine, I’ve had the last couple of days,” Reynolds said. “They said I had a slight case of pneumonia and a severe stomach viral infection or something — basically a lot of throwing up and fever.”
