The J-Hey Kid not in the line up, to be protected from lefty Madison Bumgarner. Who's 5-9 ...21 starts 6.04 era with the D'backs. And owed 60 mil '22-'24.

great to see a mostly homegrown lineup tonight.

If only we had Bote (at 3B), we could move Wisdom to left, Happ to CF, and bump Marisnick outta the lineup.

Cant stand him and Sogard and Duffy.

Marisnick is fine against lefties, and he's not really worse than Happy against eighties.

Sogard is cannon fodder. Duffy is fine for a backup but he has always had trouble staying healthy. I'd rather have Duffy than Bote.

1 down 2 to go

The DBags are on pace for the second worst record since 1962 (2003 Tigers). They still have as many championships this century as the Cucks and Sux. Sad!

They may not win the series but the D-Backs are absolutely going to win this afternoon. Cubs bats won’t have an answer for Gallen.

Boog didn't want to get Ted Barrett mad. Don't blame him. Big guy who was a amateur boxer.

I remember when a guy hitting .183 wasn’t a regular.

You know me like that.

The numbers on the back of the baseball cards are alien. I know, I know, advanced metrics but .183 or more than a strikeout a game is.. I dunno. It was my favorite sport, maybe still is, but it is just not as familiar as it once was.

I have some new regression analysis for today’s game.

I look at batted balls in play -

.250 or below - defensive substitution or pinch-runner

.250-.275 - hit for power

.275 -.290 - play good defense, steal bases, sacrifice as needed

.290+ - you play

Batting average is only important in today's MLB if it's high. Not important if it's low.

I'd feel better about those numbers if they put the ball in play more.

D-Backs pitchers have some weird last names.

Mantiply.

De Geus or some shit.

I'm half-watching the DBacks post game show and Grace is totally livid at Joakim Soria. Called him out for not getting either Ortega or Chirinos out with two out, then the pitch to Contreras a meatball, and his little pause before the word was him self editing out "fucking meatball."

Other cities game broadcast, pre & post game, certainly are more opinionated than Cubs/Sox hands-off approach.

Well when the team you are covering has won 12 games in the last 11 weeks, only the die hards or the invalids are watching, so fire away. Plus you figure that Grace is pissed at the Cubs for his verbal fuckup on Marquee that got him fired, so he's extra salty.

still. good win, i guess.

Schiambi’s call of a 2 out go ahead 9th inning home run sounded like he was working for the Diamondbacks . Brutal .If you don’t want to be there dude, quit

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

They were having technical issues….I assume that was the reason.

I was watching the DBacks feed, it was pretty rough for about ten minutes, totally losing the picture for 4-5 seconds at a time. If Sciambi was trying to call off of that, it would be really difficult.
