PHOENIX -- Anthony DeSclafani was in uncharted territory pitching in the ninth inning Saturday night, and he responded by going into attack mode.DeSclafani threw a four-hitter and Scott Schebler homered twice to lift the Cincinnati Reds over the Arizona Diamondbacks 13-0 on Saturday night.DeSclafani (8-2) had nine strikeouts and a walk, needing 108 pitches to throw the first complete game of his career. Hed never thrown a pitch in the ninth as a starter.In the ninth inning, you dont want to beat around the bush, he said. You just attack. I felt like I got that last out and I was still so focused, I didnt even realize it happened because I was so locked in.Joey Votto and Schebler homered during a four-run first inning and Schebler homered again during a five-run second, all against Zack Godley (4-3).Every pitch I threw, they hit. Chalk it up to a bad game, Godley said. I didnt let my defense do what they are out there for. I gave up too many fly balls and a couple of them went over the fence.Schebler had a career-high five RBI and three hits in the first multihomer game of his career.Zack Cozart hit his 16th homer in the fourth inning and Adam Duvall got his 29th homer in the eighth, both solo shots.DeSclafani has been outstanding since beginning the season on the disabled list with an oblique injury. He made his first start June 10 and began the year 6-0, and his ERA after Saturdays gem is 2.96. He twice went eight innings earlier this season.The ninth inning and him (DeSclafani) closing it out was great, Reds manager Bryan Price said. We didnt need him to do that, but it was a great opportunity for him to throw his first complete game and his first shutout.It was one of those things where you need to be rewarded for a job well done, Price added.Brandon Phillips went 3 for 4 with two RBI for Cincinnati.Diamondbacks reliever Vicente Campos made his major league debut and allowed two runs and four hits over 5 2/3 innings.All my career I have been a starter, so it is not really a big deal going more than five innings, Campos said through an interpreter.Stars for both teams were subbed out long before the game ended. Votto and the Diamondbacks Paul Goldschmidt each played six innings.ALUMNI ACTIONThe Diamondbacks held their annual alumni game earlier Saturday between former players wearing throwback red and purple jerseys. The starting pitchers were Rodrigo Lopez, now a broadcaster, and Elmer Dessens.Reggie Sanders tripled in Alex Cintron and Willie Bloomquist doubled in a run for the red team, but Andy Stankiewicz and former pitcher Stephen Randolph each doubled in two runs off J.J. Putz to lead the purple team to a 5-2 win in the three-inning game.ROSTER MOVEThe Reds purchased the contract of catcher Raffy Lopez from Triple-A Louisville. Infielder Tony Renda, who pinch-hit Friday night, was optioned to Louisville.TRAINERS ROOMReds: C Tucker Barnhart remained out with a right hand injury.
