It's only one stat, but I got a kick out of the batting averages for today's starters.

Greinke...P... .294
Peralta...LF... .286
Pollock...CF... .285
Goldy....1B... .284

Next highest is Marte at ..240

The Mendoza line is the divide between our"good" hitters and our bad ones.

I just got home and see that Greinke has pitched a 3-hit shutout for seven innings and every D-back except Ahmed and Greinke have gotten on base (once each I think).

It is a good feeling to see just about everyone contributing.

Think I would’ve left Zack in the game there... Chafin’s been good as of late, but Zack could’ve finished the 8th...

Sure enough...Chafin gives up a damn walk and now Archie coming in... Dammit Torey - should’ve left Zack in the damn game!!

I'm not sure about that. We've seen it happen too many times where our starting pitcher was getting high in pitch count, beginning to tire and left in one or two batters too long.

Especially with it being a move to go lefty-on-lefty and pitch to one batter, then Archie.

Boxburger, despite giving up a single today, strikes out the side in the 9th for the second game in a row.
He has two pitches -- a fast ball and a changeup. His fast ball is not that overwhelming. How does he do it? Location-location-location. :)

Dbacks have the best road record in the NL.
Maybe that humidor has gotten into the hitters heads.
