What a play by Matt Kata to start the double-play and end the game.

And Clark's hit off the center field wall. I love watching that guy hit. And Gonzo's.

And Clayton working the pitcher, then driving in the go-ahead run.

A Brandon started the game on the mound and a Brandon ended it. Maybe Lyon can be a solid Closer for us.

Imagine if we hadn't had those two consecutive blown saves in the 9th. We probably would have 2 Major League teams with the best records in their leagues.

But things like that even out because what happens if the Rockies don't make that error in the 8th? Diamondbacks might of lost.

Mr. GIDP was Mr. Clutch tonight - Clayton showed patience along with some pop at the plate tonight; okay, so his getting picked off of first was a downer, but Royce provided solid offense & defense tonight. Webb ended up throwing 94 pitches over 8 innings, giving up 2 ER - if we could get numbers like that from Vasquez & Ortiz.... ;)

This team keeps getting clutch hit after clutch hit, and that's huge. This team needed to get off to a good start,and so far, they have. Let's get the sweep tomorrow!

I'm glad Brandon got the win - he definitely pitched well enough to get it!

Great win for the Dbacks. These are the type of games we lost last year.
"One" of the types of games we lost last year... along with blowouts and blown leads (less frequent since the team rarely got the lead). The Dbacks didn't discriminate on how they would lose LAST year.

2005 is an entirely different story
