“I came back from Mexico for this?” So was my thought in the bottom of the third inning, as Los Angeles scored six runs without Slade Cecconi even retiring a batter. Though that certainly seemed a reasonable sentiment at the time, this ended up being a considerably closer game than it looked like it was going to be at that point. Indeed, save for a couple of pieces of bad batted-ball luck, the Diamondbacks could have ended up coming back for a memorable victory. But the Dodgers’ billion-dollar men proved just a little too much for the Diamondbacks to handle, in their first game at Dodger Stadium since last year’s NL Division Series.
