<p>Tracy turned to reliever Joel Peralta to get the first two outs of the ninth and brought in closer Huston Street to get the final out and seal a 5-0 win over the Diamondbacks. Tracy said Peralta would have been off four days had he not pitched and needed work. The same with Street, who would have been idle five days without getting into this game.

The Chicago Cubs have acquired infielder Jeff Baker from the Colorado Rockies for minor league right-handed pitcher Al Alburquerque and designated infielder Ryan Freel for assignment. Baker was activated off the Rockies' 60-day disabled list and was to join the Cubs for their Thursday night game at Wrigley Field against the Milwaukee Brewers.
One run was enough for a victory for three National League teams Wednesday, the first time in 33 years there were three 1-0 games in one league on the same day. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, the last time there were three 1-0 games in one league was Sept. 1, 1976, in the NL. On that day, St. Louis beat Cincinnati in 11 innings; Houston defeated Philadelphia; and New York beat San Francisco.
