Wait, there's a baseball team in town? Does ASFN know this??

These guys probably can't wait for this weekend to be over, and everyone starts to notice that they're doing surprisingly well.

I want Dyson to play CF, Marte 2nd, Escobar 3rd. Rest is good.

I forwarded this to Torey. I don’t think he knows who he is messing with.

 

[Dback Jon]

I forwarded this to Torey. I don’t think he knows who he is messing with.

Thanks. I am sure it will be heeded.

Robbie with 22 pitches in the 1st inning.

That doesn't help.

 

[BC867]

Close play at the plate on Jones' hit and Marte scores. Cubs didn't call for a review.

Walker up with runners on 2B & 3B and one out.

Popup -- 2 outs. And Wilmer Flores bails him out with a 2-run single. 3-0 D-backs.

 

[Dback Jon]

Flores finally gets a big hit

 

[BC867]

Robbie Ray gives up a 2-out 2-run HR in the 3rd and it's 3-2 D-backs.

As I said in Post #8 about Robbie, that doesn't help.

 

[BC867]

Flores drives in 2 runs. Now Vargas with a double. I guess Torey knows what he is doing.

Peralta doubles in Vargas. 4-2. A diving catch at 3B gets Walker out.

 

[Dback Jon]

And Ray gives that run back up

 

[BC867]

Robbie gives up a HR to Baez. 4-3 D-backs with no one out in the top of the 4th.

Robbie has given up HR's to two of the last three batters he has faced.

That doesn't . . . never mind.

Steve said that Robbie and Carson Kelly don't seem to be on the same page.

We are carrying too many alternating Catchers.


Christian Walker with another good defensive play. A tag on a wild throw to
end the Cubs inning.

 

[BC867]

Robbie at 90 pitches so far in the 5th with runners on 1st & 2nd and two outs. What's going on?

All of the five hits he's given up have been on fast balls. Marte with a running catch to retire the side.

Three runs in the 5th and it is now 7-3 Diamondbacks. Robbie is out after 5 innings and Lopez is in.

Every position player except Walker has a hit. He probably told the guys, "Let me know if you need
my help from the 7th on."

Flores has 3 RBI's and Ahmed has 2. D-backs pinch hitting for Lopez. Swihart walks to start the inning.

Steve pointed out that Swihart has played every position in the field in his career except SS & CF.

 

[BC867]

Adam Jones doubles in a run in the 8th -- his 3rd hit -- and its 8-3.

Andriese is pitching his 3rd inning in relief, trying to become the
third D-back to get a 3-inning save in a short spell, the first two
being the two rookies in their first Major League appearances.

 

[devilalum]

I think they already have more 2 out RBIs than they did all last year.

[BC867]

Andreise puts, and strands, runners on 2nd & 3rd for the save.

At this moment, the D-backs are tied with the Dodgers for the
Division lead, but the Dodgers are leading the Pirates by 4 runs.
