    Damn run inning. Brutal. Gotta hope that the offense can put about 6 more on the board

    Love Lance, but ultimately, I think he belongs in the pen. He has the profile of a great reliever: high velo fastball and a great breaking ball (curve).

    Lance is so overrated. I remember 2 good outings. One against the Yanks in the playoffs where he throws like 29 curve balls in a row and can't be hit. The other is where he pitched a CG with only 88 pitches. All other outings, he is at 88 pitches after 4 innings. His command sucks.

    Trump says they're laughing at us and he will put an end to that if re-elected.

    Not changing today. Inning continues, but further runs (if any) are not his.
    Marte (leadoff) scored twice, 2-7 scored once each, 8 and 9 did not.

    He had to have been tipping his pitches or something. That was insane. Damn.

    Lance appears to have served it up.

    Or are the Diamondbacks using buzzers? I mean, if you make a completely unfounded claim, they'll believe you, right? :p

    Or he's recovering from Tommy John Surgery after a truncated Spring Training and then and abbreviated ST#2 with a rush to start games because of money.

    Or what you said.
