Game #67-Arizona Diamondbacks @ Philadelphia Phillies. 06/10/19

[BC867]

Yup, as Steve & BB confirmed, the D-backs are now trying to
hit every ball into the air. Seven in a row have been retired.

But still, they keep talking up HR's.

And tied up

No clue how that wasn't an error on Marte. Either way, this Clarke kid isn't anything special. They need to move to the next guy. Sometimes you can just tell when a guy is gonna be good or not and I don't see him having it.

Clarke is clearly not ready for MLB. I continue to be shocked that Lovullo favors him over the clearly better and more ready Duplantier.

?? Duplantier is starting tomorrow.

If not Clarke, then who?

 

[Dback Jon]

Escobar!!

But Clarke got the opportunity first...twice.

At this point, I would go back to Godley before sticking with Clarke. Like I said, Clarke clearly isn't ready.

OK - who was talking smack about Avila?

Yup, they finally move him up to 7th in the order and he comes through with a HR.

He should not precede the pitcher in the lineup.

 

[Dback Jon]

Let's get the two out rally going!

Dyson and Marte single

 

[BC867]

After being shut down for innings 2-3-4 following the 2 HR's in the 1st,
it is good to see that D-backs hitters have stopped trying to hit every
pitch out. And hit two 2-run HR's. The best way to hit HR's is to not
try on every pitch.

 

[Dback Jon]

Freight Train can't deliver

 

[Azjose86]

They need to get Clarke out of the game. He's gonna blow the lead

 

[Dback Jon]

I hope TL has someone on call to come in.

Can't let them back in
