National League Roundup: Schilling helps Arizona win

Pitcher gets strikeout No. 300

? Curt Schilling picked up his 300th strikeout. His 24th victory will have to wait.

Schilling joined Randy Johnson to make strikeout history, and Tony Womack singled home the winning run in the 13th inning Sunday to give the Arizona Diamondbacks a 6-5 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.

Schilling’s bid to become baseball’s first 24-game winner in six years was spoiled when an error by second baseman Junior Spivey allowed the Brewers to score the tying run in the ninth.

“Curt pitched a good ballgame. He really battled,” Spivey said. “I just couldn’t make a routine play.”

Schilling struck out eight to reach 300 for the season. He and Johnson are the first teammates with 300 strikeouts in the same season.

“Anytime that you do something in the game today that’s never been done before, you’re talking about over a century’s worth of history, that’s special,” Schilling said. “I’m proud of it. He (Johnson) is part of the reason I got there, and I’m proud of that, too.”

Felix Jose and Erubiel Durazo began the 13th with pinch-hit singles off Nelson Figueroa (1-7), then Womack slapped a single to left to win it.
