Former Bellaire High School standout Chris Young hit an RBI double, but the Arizona Diamondbacks fell 7-6 to the Cincinnati Reds in Major League Baseball action Thursday.

On the season, the center fielder is batting .206 with nine homers and 21 RBIs.

He was named to the NL All-Star and Home Run Derby teams during the 2010 season, which saw him hit .257 with 27 home runs, 91 RBIs and 94 runs scored.
