    Games #57 And #58 Colorado Rockies @ Arizona Diamondbacks. 09/25/20

    Travis Bergen in relief for the D-backs gives up a long HR. Right after BB pointed out that our relievers have given up no runs in their last eleven innings. 11-5. It's fun watching D-backs games lately! BTW, tomorrow's game starts at 5 PM. And our final game on Sunday, with MadBum starting...

    That makes it 11-4 after 5. Taylor Clarke, after a rocky (no pun intended) start has retired 9 of his last 10. On a light note, it reminds me of my favorite pun. I sent a friend a list of my ten favorite puns to make him laugh, but no pun intended. ... ... ... ... ... ... No pun in ten...

    D-backs increase the lead to 10-4 at the end of four, but leave runners stranded on 2nd & 3rd. The box score shows 20 runners left on base in the first game. And 13 through four innings of this 2nd game. I guess that's the total of the players rather than left-on-base as the half-inning ended.

    Suns trade ideas for the fall of 2020

    Or be tempted to, once again, use Devin as our best facilitator and best scorer. And be doubled and tripled every time he touches the ball.

    Josh VanMeter with a 3-run HR for the D-backs with one out in the 3rd. 9-4 D-backs. News flash! The Valley of the Sun has been lifted to 5,280 feet and we're now a mile high city. :) Oh, the roof is open.

    Hilliard is up for the Rockies with a runner on and two outs. The entire D-backs infield is on the right side of 2nd base, so he hits a grounder to the right side to leave him stranded. It defies logic! It's 2020 and the world is going crazy! Has someone sprayed 'stupid gas' in the air? :eek:

    I dozed off in my rocker-recliner and it's 6-4 D-backs. Hmmm! Maybe it is Coors Field. :D

    The first inning took 40 minutes. Rockies pitchers threw 44 pitches in the 1st inning.

    Locastro with a 2-run single. Santo, the Rockies rookie pitcher, comes out after 2/3 of an inning. I feel sorry for the kid. And it's not even Coors Field. The Rockies bobble a grounder. Bases are loaded again. Walker with a fly ball to CF and the bases are left loaded. 6-1 D-backs. With six...

    Pavin Smith walks to load the bases again, with Ahmed coming up. The Rockies pitcher is not ready for a Major League start. Another run scores on a force out and it's 3-1 D-backs. 'Sure is nice to manufacture runs and not play from behind. This is the third double header in the D-backs...

    D-backs load the bases with no one out in the 1st. The Freight Train singles in two. D-backs lead 2-1. The Rockies pitcher is making his first Major League start.

    Our 7-8-9-2 part of the lineup in the second game are hitting .147, .182, .093 and .059. 'Hope they can put together some hits . . . and some more runs.

    Gallen looks so nerdy on the mound, where he wears his glasses. Maybe that works to his advantage. :rolleyes:

    Crichton in for the final out with runners on 1st & 2nd. And the D-backs win the Friday opener! Gallen had 10 strikeouts in his 6 innings.

    The D-backs load the bases with no out in the 6th. Walker with a high 30--foot popup. And Calhoun, running outside the baseline hits into a DP. It's still 4-0 going to the top of the 7th (final) inning. López in for the "save". The nightcap will start 45 minutes after the end of this game.

    Why are you turning a positive into a negative generalization? The D-backs started showing less "lift" and more scoring following a players-only meeting. It was announced on TV! And, as also quoted, Torey had told Steve and BB that he was starting Lamb with an .050 batting average because "he...

    With Gallen at 87 pitches with one out in the 6th and runners on 1st & 2nd, Lòpez is up in the pen. And a double play ends it.

    Good to see the D-backs score efficiently. Versus all-or-nothing solo home runs. Just as the last game, a single, triple and 2-run HR account for the scoring so far. As I commented last game, whether Lovullo has seen the light or the players have taken it upon themselves, good for them.

    Game #56 Texas Rangers @ Arizona Diamondbacks. 9/23/20

    In the BIG INNING, the Diamondbacks created a 2-run single, a triple, a solo HR and a 2-run HR. To go with a solo HR the previous inning. I am more impressed with the 2-run single, run scoring triple and 2-run HR than the two solo HR's. If Torey is, in fact, responsible for this recent...

    Oops! From a basketball team out of the playoffs for over a decade to a last place baseball team, sometimes they blend together. And knowing that the Mercury will be rebuilding when their 38-year old star ends her career.

    Uh oh, he's walked the bases full . . . with no one out. Pop up. One out. Strike out. Two outs. Strike out. Bases left loaded. But he threw 29 pitches.
