    Good to see Fisher go up there attacking.

    For once Pettis held a guy when he probably should have sent him, that's like seeing a unicorn.

    Pettis should have sent Marwin. I know Springer was coming up but he hasn't been good in those spots this year. Go for the lead on the road.

    Stat guys one the forum. Am I correct in thinking based purely off of watching games that we have too elite offensive players. Altuve and Correa

    Elite is a very vague term.

    Ok... all star if that makes it easier. Just observing that Bergman appears to be under performing so does every other position player. Or they are just not good. It’s one or the other. I still think they are better offensively than they have show thus far. I don’t know they stats though

    Tough call by Pettis. Ball kicked straight to the RF. I'm sure if he knew that he'd double clutch the throw, and relay man would spike it 10 feet up the 3B line, and Springer would flail at 3 pitches like a coked up muppet, he'd have sent him.

    What a crappy at bat by Carlos. He’s striking out way too much.

    By the way, the diamondbacks uniforms are the worst in baseball. I am not sure what exactly is going on. They look like softball jerseys

    3-1 pitch to Correa should have been put in the pool.

    Yup and that pitch was in the hottest hitting zone for Correa... yet it didn’t and he once again shows a shitty approach after being up 3-0.

    Yuli has really become a pretty good 1st baseman.

    Posted something from memory before I checked the stats.

    Ballsy play by Devo. Nice job by him and Carlos.
