Man… normally Walker makes that play.

Man… normally Walker makes that play.

Yup. So why did they call him out?

At the game

 

[Dback Jon]

Corbin walks again!

Said the runner made a turn toward second… which he did. Dbacks caught a break there.

 

[82CardsGrad]

Corbin walks again!

This is why Torey stayed with Pfaadt. He’s trying to manage the pen, while banking on his offense…

I was more concerned about having the pitching coach go out there and try to settle him down

 

[Dback Jon]

That’s what I thought but they never really made an announcement

 

[Dback Jon]

And they should have pulled him

 

[82CardsGrad]

That Cruz dude is a bad-ass!

 

[Dback Jon]

Need more runs!

 

[Dback Jon]

That Cruz dude is a bad-ass!

Strikes out a lot. But when he makes contact…

 

[Dback Jon]

Torey does the right thing and pinch hits Pederson - two-run triple!!

 

[Dback Jon]

Jake with 4th single of the game

 

[82CardsGrad]

Need more runs!

We got ‘em!

 

[82CardsGrad]

Carroll with a little league pop up… Ugh…

 

[Dback Jon]

Carroll with a little league pop up… Ugh…

Ugly swings again

 

[Dback Jon]

9-5 win

 

[Chris_Sanders]

I feel for Pfaadt. 3 of those runs were on Gurriel not being able to make a routine play in RF. The home town scorer gave him a break not making that a 2 base error

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Gurriel is hitting 66 points below his OPS of last year.

 

[krazy2k]

Another good series win. Now go for the sweep tomorrow against one of their top pitchers in Keller.

 

[outcent13]

Didn’t we have a good day the last time we faced Keller?

 

[outcent13]

At least the plate umpire is calling it both ways. All you can really hope for nowadays I guess

 

[Plissken]

I don't think they should have taken Diaz out so early. He was grooving.

 

[Dback Jon]

I don't think they should have taken Diaz out so early. He was grooving.

He was at 79 pitches so not sure how much further they want to stretch him right now


But of course, Singleply comes in immediately gives up a run

 

[outcent13]

Could really use an extra run or two here. It’s lining up for O’Neil Cruz to lead off the ninth against Sewald. That matchup makes me uncomfortable to say the least lol
Edit: I had that completely wrong haha
