Thanks Shawn Green........ Way to miff that ball in RF and let Lofton get to third and score a batter later. It's ok, he'll get fired up about making that error and will ground into an inning ending double play. Clown

Vargas looked good in the first. The batters should have gone down in order if it wasn't for Green making an error on a little league flyball.

Penny is pitching awesome this year. How about having him and Capuano in the rotation. Or Zito or Sheets as opposed to Cory Meyers..... Hopefully we can knock him around, we gotta catch those division leading Rockies

And Green just saved 2 runs in the 3rd inning by robbing a would be JD Drew home run. I still won't take any of the above comments back..... Nice catch Shawn (God it's hard to give him a compliment)

Papa Grande with the save! Great play by Counsell to get the final out.

COUNSELL!!!!!! What a great play to save the game. Great pitching by Vargas! Papa Grande tried to make it interesting but closed it out. Great win!

I thought it was a well plyed game with some great defensive plays made. Both Green's and Loftons catches were great. Jackson and Counsell both made good plays. A well played game by both teams with us getting the win.

Former ASU star Andre Eithier is getting his first MLB start tonight in LF for the Dodgers. Congrats to him for making a quick journey from the minors to the majors. However, can't cheer for him while he's wearing Dodger Blue playing our Dbacks!

Diamondbacks sweep the Dodgers and are over .500! Props to Tracy, Green and Counsell.

The Cubs come in next and I think it's time to give Maddux his first loss.

YES! Another great comeback.... We couldn't sniff coming back like that the last couple seasons yet we've done it a handful of times this year. And the Suns are gonna beat the Lakers... Hopefully Raja doesn't get suspended but I love seeing him throw Kobe on his ***** A$$. I hate the L.A. Rapers

Btw, Shawn Green made two exceptional catches tonight, and he's hitting on all cylinders. Good. Better trade bait.

Yeah, Shawn must have stumbled into the Way Back Machine. I think it's a little optimistic to think we'll trade him but you're right, now would be the time.
