The D-backs limped into the finale of this 3-game set with the Dodgers. Not even counting losing 10 of their last 11 games, this series didn’t start as you’d hoped for a team looking for any signs of life after the fire sale at the trade deadline.
Game 1 was not as close as the 6-3 final score would indicate, as a late Ahmed homer was too late to make much of a difference. Yesterday was a disappointment, seeing the bullpen blow not one, but two save opportunities in the 9th and 10th innings.
