PHILADELPHIA -- Martin Prado capped off a big night with sacrifice fly in the 10th inning that proved to be the game-winner as the D-backs beat the Phillies, 10-6, on Saturday night at Citizens Bank Park.
Prado was 3-for-4 with five RBIs and finished a triple shy of hitting for the cycle.
Ender Inciarte reached on a bunt single with one out in the 10th, moved to third on a double by Didi Gregorius and scored on Prado's shallow fly to center.
Then Nick Evans hit a three-run pinch-hit homer to break things open.
That capped a wild evening that saw Arizona rally from an early 6-2 deficit.

The D-backs handed Josh Collmenter a 1-0 lead before he even took the mound thanks to Mark Trumbo's RBI single in the first.
This was not to be Collmenter's night, however.
The Phillies jumped all over him in the second for four runs, two of which came on a Cody Asche home run and the other two on RBIs by Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley.
Collmenter seemed to have trouble keeping the ball down in the strike zone, and Marlon Byrd capitalized with a home run to lead off the third inning.
The Phillies scored two runs in that inning as Collmenter departed with two outs in the frame with the D-backs trailing, 6-2. It was the second-shortest start of his career.
In the past, giving Cliff Lee six runs was good for a win, but Lee is still working his way back into shape after missing nearly two months of the season, and he has not been sharp lately.
The D-backs worked Lee hard, scoring three runs off him before he departed after five innings with Philadelphia clinging to a 6-3 lead.
Things got closer in the sixth as Prado's two-run double off reliever Justin De Fratus pulled the D-backs to within 6-5.
One inning later, the D-backs tied the game when Inciarte's groundout scored Gerardo Parra from third.
