Padres RP Nick Martinez improved to 4-3 on the season, earning a victory in relief in a 6-5 win over the Diamondbacks Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Martinez pitched a scoreless top of the ninth, with the Padres trailing 5-4. Jorge Alfaro hit a two-run walk-off single, turning the 32-year-old into a winner. Bob Melvin has turned to Martinez in most of the save opportunities over the last couple of weeks, but he could still lose some work to Josh Hader, if the lefty can throw strikes.
