I don't think Andriese put a runner on. He only pitched to one batter and struck him out?
Now, I'm not sure. But he left the bases loaded. Good for him.

Escobar has been in a batting slump, but he still drives in runs
(103, I believe) and that's what counts.

Two important insurance runs in the 7th.

And then Walker tried to hit a homerun and fly out. Getting it on the ground..

BB is reporting that Walker was shaking his left wrist
after a swing. He might have a nagging injury.

I get it ive seen him hitting...hes just really pathetic at fielding ....and im being nice there. Im just not sold. Id rather have a good hitting good fielding 1st baseman. His numbers are goldy like this year but i just think his D is way below average


Agreed his fielding is below average. But on Ahmed’s throw, that has to be better

If Cron or Beers beat him out in Spring, so be it. Just haven’t seen anything from Cron that would lead me to pine for him.

I appreciate your opinion. But the only chance he got this season was in the Minors. And he's been tearing it apart.

Jones with his 3rd pinch hit HR this season.

6-2 D-backs.

A double off the mitt of Locastro and another run scores.

A good effort to just get to it, but yeah, we'd expect him to hold it.

Tying run at the plate and Archie coming in.
