Curt Schilling and Wade LeBlanc got the series started by matching zeroes. Schilling went 9 1/3 for Arizona giving up just 6 hits while striking out 11. LeBlanc matched Schill for the first 8 innings, allowing just 3 hits while fanning 6 of his own. The lone run for the game was scored in the top of the 11th when Tony Womack drove in Damian Miller. Byung-Hyun Kim pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 12th to pick up his 7th save.
Arizona wins 2-1
WP: Johnson (5-2)
LP: Correia (1-4)
SV: Kim (8)
HR: Dellucci (4)
Game 2 starters Johnson and Correia picked up right where their game 1 counterparts left off. Correia outlasted Johnson 8 innings to 6 2/3, but it was Johnson that walked away with the victory. The Big Unit gave up just 1 unearned run while striking out 7. A 1st inning homer by David Dellucci and a 4th inning Luis Gonzalez RBI were all the offense needed.
Arizona wins 2-0

HR: none
Following Johnson and Schilling is a tall task for any pitcher, but on this day, Robert Ellis was more than up for the challenge. The Arizona righty making his 2nd start of the season was sensational. Needing only 95 pitches to dispose of the Padres in game 3, Ellis gave up just 3 hits, walked none and struck out 3 en route to the complete game shutout. Luis Gonzalez and Greg Colbrunn each drove in a run for the DBacks as they somehow managed to turn 5 runs into a 3 game sweep of the Padres.
