The Padres defeated the Diamondbacks on Saturday, lifting them to .500 for the first time since April 10, 2011.

San Diego's last day above .500 was the finale of the 2010 season, when they finished 90-72.

The Padres, who began the season 5-15, have strung together a 29-19 record since April 24th, tied for the second-best mark in the National League in that time.
