First pitch is set for 6:05 p.m Arizona time
That's a good point. Three of the four D-backs runs were unearned.Hopefully this snaps them out of it. Still, this looks like a team where .500 is the ceiling. Offense has shown nothing in 5 games.
That's a good point. Three of the four D-backs runs were unearned.
Two scored on the error. And the third because the inning was extended.
As mentioned, without the error, Walker would have stranded runners on
2nd & 3rd to end the half inning.
And, of course, Starling is benched in the next game in favor of Jon Jay.Other than the two Martes, every other player is struggling mightily at the plate.
Meanwhile, the Ahmed extension looks like a big mistake already, as he is struggling both at the plate and in the field.
And, of course, Starling is benched in the next game in favor of Jon Jay.
As far as Ahmed, he is, of course, a great fielder, and a decent hitter vs. LHP.
But against RHP, he is, and has always been sub-par. It is what it is.
