A night of bizarre sequences ended with the most peculiar yet: a runner scoring from second on a squibber to the right side.

Josh Rojas scored the winning run in the ninth inning when shortstop C.J. Abrams couldn't handle a throw at second base, and the Diamondbacks rallied from a late six-run deficit to beat the Padres 7-6 on Tuesday.

"You can’t make up some of the things that I saw today," Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said. "We took advantage of a lot of key situations and won a baseball game, and I’m excited for these guys. They were excited. It was fun to be out there on the field watching that celebration."

Arizona trailed 6-0 after six innings, but scored four in the seventh and tied it with two more in the eighth.

Mark Melancon (3-6) stranded a runner at third in the ninth inning after a leadoff walk and two wild pitches, setting the stage for a dramatic finish.
