Season thread. The Diamondbacks start their run to the playoffs tonight

[Lefty]

I knew this team would start hitting once thay got home. Cintron brings in Bautista with a double. 6-1.

 

[Lefty]

I step out for 10 minutes, turn the game back on and it's 6-4 and Randy is out of the game. They have to win this game.

 

[Lefty]

6-5 now. The Diamondbacks need to get some insurance runs.

 

[Lefty]

Kata and Junior both get on to start the bottom of the 6th. Need to get these guys in.

 

[Lefty]

Gonzo drives both of them in but then does a bonehead thing and does not slide. He is initially called safe but Gonzo starts to walk to the dugout. 8-5.

 

[green machine]

This team is so damn stupid! Where is the veteran experience? It seems like veteran slacking. Everyone should slide into third, and then it's like Gonzo didn't even here the umpire call him safe. Stupid. That right there cost us a run, lets hope that doesn't come back to hurt them tonight.

8-5 and 2 innings to go. By the way, how can Mark Grace still be on this team. He once again made an out and before that was hitting 197.

 

[Lefty]

Great, Brenly brings in Myers and he walks the hitter on four pitches.

 

[Lefty]

Valverde gets the last out, still 8-5 bottom of the 8th.

 

[Lefty]

Diamondbacks win, 8-5! Needed this win. MVP goes to Shea. Props to Cintron, Gonzo and Kata.

I hope Brenly keeps this line-up for tomorrow. Go get them Curt.

I just saw a replay of Vladimere's homer....holy smokes....

 

[Lefty]

I would love to see Vlad in a Diamondback uniform next year. I wonder if the Diamondbacks would seriously look at him?

 

[Dback Jon]

Great game!!
Nice to see the offense do something.

 

[SweetD]

Man that sure got scary in the 6th Randy is just not the same. He has lost some control and speed. At least they pulled him before it was to late. Good to see they gave him a chance to pull it out though. Nice game all round except Shea had some bad D plays again. Rally Rattler Ready!!!!

 

[Lefty]

Curt looked great in the first. Two strikeouts and a grounder. Let's duplicate yesterday's first inning and get an early lead.

 

[Lefty]

Diamondbacks are up 2-1 thanks to a home run by Rod and a rbi single by Counsell.

 

[Evil Ash]

Nice little inning there ... D-backs up 2-1! Hey would ya look at that ... this team is finally hitting again!

 

[Lefty]

More good news. The Rockies are beating the Phillies 4-1.

 

[Lefty]

2-2 now. The offense needs to get Curt a big lead.

 

[Lefty]

Bases loaded and one out and they can't score. Brennaman got pissed when Gonzo popped up.

 

[Lefty]

Curt deserved much better. He has only given up 7 runs since his return. 2-2 going to the bottom of the 8th.

 

[Evil Ash]

BAERGA does it again! D-backs up 3-2 heading to the top of the 9th!

Come on Mantei close it out!!

 

[Lefty]

Way to go Carlos! 3-2 going to the top of the 9th. Props to Cintron and Mondesi for keeping the inning alive.

 

[Lefty]

The Phillies lost 5-1 so a win tonight and the Diamondbacks will be only 4 out of the wild card.

 

[Lefty]

Diamondbacks win 3-2. MVP goes to Curt and Carlos. Props to Mondesi, Cintron, Rod and the bullpen.

Four games behind the wild card leader!
