PHOENIX - If Saturday night was Chase Andersons last start of the 2014 season, he went out in victorious fashion. Anderson made it through five innings and got plenty of run support, helping the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 10-4 win over the San Diego Padres Saturday night. Anderson, 26, began the season at Double-A Mobile. But he got the callup to the Diamondbacks rotation in May and is 9-6 with a 3.70 earned run average in 20 starts. He has pitched a combined 148 1/3 innings this season in the minors and majors, the most in one season in his pro career. Manager Kirk Gibson is considering shutting him down for the rest of the season. "I have no problem with that. Im just out there competing. I want to be out there as long as I can but I understand theyre protecting me, and Im just grateful that theyre caring for me and my arm," Anderson said. Anderson allowed two runs on four hits with five strikeouts and two walks, but the Diamondbacks took control early, scoring six runs off All-Star Tyson Ross in the first two innings. Ross (13-14) couldnt find a rhythm from the start, and didnt get help from his defence. Mark Trumbos single in the first scored two runs when shortstop Alexi Amarista kicked the ball into shallow right field. Then catcher Rene Riveras pickoff throw to first base hit Aaron Hill in the helmet. Hill and Trumbo each moved up a base, then Ross threw a wild pitch to allow Trumbo to score and make the score 3-0. The second inning brought more pitching and fielding woes for the Padres. Chris Owings singled in a run and A.J. Pollock hit a routine grounder to Amarista, whose throw to first base pulled Yasmani Grandal off the bag for an error. That brought in another run. Trumbo then hit a grounder back to Ross, who decided to come home to get the out. But Owings beat the throw and Arizona took a 6-0 lead. "We came out pretty aggressive, we put a lot of guys in motion," Gibson said. "It worked out for us very well." Trumbo had three hits and three runs batted in on the night. Ross (13-14) was charged with four earned runs and five hits. He struck out four and walked two in his shortest outing of the season. Grandals 13th home run of the season made it 6-1 in the fourth. Amarista drove in two of the Padres runs, one after Riveras triple in the sixth. Yangervis Solarte hit a solo homer in the seventh. PACHECO IN A PINCH The Diamondbacks Jordan Pacheco put the game out of reach in the seventh inning with a two-out, two-run pinch-hit single. Pacheco is 4-for-6 in his last six at-bats with runners in scoring position. "He has the tools to be a productive guy off the bench," Gibson said. "Big hit for us. The Padres started to come back and those runs were big." GAFFES HURT PADRES The Padres had two errors, one each from Rivera and Amarista. Both hurt the team in the loss. "It wasnt a clean game at all," manager Bud Black said. "It was one of those games where we just did not execute in a number of areas." TRAINERS ROOM Padres: Reliever Joaquin Benoit (sore shoulder) is scheduled for a bullpen session Sunday, with the hope that hell be able to pitch in a game soon. ... RHP Blaine Boyer is also dealing with a shoulder problem but isnt ready to throw off a bullpen mound yet. Diamondbacks: After an MRI revealed no structural damage to his back, OF David Peralta is expected to resume baseball activities Monday. But the team is in no hurry to get him back to playing, manager Kirk Gibson said. ON DECK Padres: RHP Odrisamer Despaigne (3-6) takes a 3.55 earned run average into Sundays start against Arizona. He was knocked around for six earned runs in 4 1-3 innings in his last start Monday, a loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Diamondbacks: RHP Trevor Cahill (3-11) has allowed three earned runs or less in nine of his last 10 starts. In eight starts against San Diego, hes 2-4 with a 3.06 ERA. Paul Martin Jersey .

Adidas Brent Burns Jersey .C. -- After turning Tobacco Road into "Raleigh Top," Tennessee is headed to the round of 16. CHICAGO -- Playoff appearances were rare enough for the Washington Wizards let alone series victories. Never mind all that now. John Wall finished with 24 points, Nene scored 20, and the Wizards beat the Chicago Bulls 75-69 on Tuesday night to clinch their first-round series in five games. Bradley Beal scored 17 points, and the fifth-seeded Wizards advanced in the post-season for just the third time since the 1970s. They will meet Indiana or Atlanta in the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Hawks lead the series 3-2. Its a huge step for a franchise that hadnt been to the post-season since 2008, but with Wall and Beal leading the way, they won 44 games during the regular season. "It just shows our continued growth," Beal said. "We played great basketball in this series and we can only continue to get better and better." As for the Bulls? "It is real disappointing," Taj Gibson said. "We put so much work into the season, came out of countless holes." The Wizards turned a halftime tie into a nine-point lead heading into the fourth quarter and hung on down the stretch. Chicagos comeback chances took a big hit early in the final quarter when Gibson crumbled to the court clutching his left ankle after he tried to block a layup by Wall with the Wizards up by six points. He had to be helped off the court and did not return. The Bulls got within three points in the closing minutes but couldnt grab rebounds when they needed them, particularly after D.J. Augustin hit two free throws to make it 72-69 with 2:18 left. The Wizards grabbed three offensive rebounds while whittling more than a minute off the clock before Beal threw the ball away with a minute left in the game. Carlos Boozer missed on a drive, but the Bulls couldnt convert after a shot-clock violation by Washington with 22.4 seconds left. Chicagos Jimmy Butler missed on a layup off the inbounds, and the Wizards caught a break after Andre Miller missed two free throws. Nene tracked down the loose ball and Beal hit the first free throw to make it 73-69 with 14.6 seconds left before missing the second. But Nene got another rebound, and that led to two free throws by Wall with 7.8 seconds remaining. Nene was back to wreaking havoc after serving a one-game suspension for grabbing Butlers head, whether he was knocking down jumpers or sscoring inside.dddddddddddd. He hit 10 of 17 shots and grabbed seven rebounds. Wall also had seven boards and hit 9 of 11 free throws. Marcin Gortat grabbed 13 rebounds, and the Wizards did something they have rarely done the past three-and-a-half decades -- they moved on. The playoffs have mostly been one-and-done affairs for them -- with a few exceptions -- since they lost to Seattle in the 1979 Finals. They knocked off New Jersey 2-0 in the first round in 1982 and took out Chicago in six games in 2005. In this series, they showed a resolve and killer instinct that wasnt always there in the regular season. "The main thing is to focus in and know what this team is capable of," Wall said. "I just give a lot of credit to my teammates and the coaching staff and the great game plan and making adjustments and committing ourselves to play on every given night." For the Bulls, a season that unfolded in ways they never envisioned is finally over. They expected to challenge Miami for supremacy in the Eastern Conference with Derrick Rose back after sitting out last season, only to lose their star to another season-ending knee injury. As if that wasnt enough, they traded away one of their top remaining players in Luol Deng yet somehow squeezed out 48 victories. No team in the East won more games after New Years Eve, either, but slow starts and poor shooting plagued them in this series. Butler and Kirk Hinrich scored 16 points each and Gibson had 12 for the Bulls. Joakim Noah, whose left knee has bothering him the past few months, added 18 rebounds and seven assists. Boozer, a candidate to be amnestied, added 10 points and nine rebounds in what might have been his final appearance for Chicago. The Wizards outscored the Bulls 20-11 in the third quarter to turn a 41-41 halftime tie into a 61-52 lead going into the fourth. "I am proud of this team," Noah said. "I am proud of the way we competed all year. We dealt with a lot. Whenever a season is over it is always tough." NOTES: The Wizards outrebounded the Bulls 49-43 overall and 15-8 in the fourth quarter. ... Nene declined comment about his suspension at the Wizards shootaround, saying, "I dont want to talk about that." ... Gibson on his injury: "Real painful. I got to see what they (the medical staff) say tomorrow." ' ' '
