The Phillies go for a third straight win tonight at home behind Kyle Kendrick; the visiting Diamondbacks counter with Doug Davis. Arizona has been humbled somewhat since we last saw them two months ago: they're 18-30 since May 18. But they retain the lead in the sea of mediocrity that is the NL West. The 20 year-old Justin Upton, one of Arizona's better hitters, is expected to miss the series.
