If you decided to forgo watching tonight’s game assuming Arizona’s offense would continue its woes, announce yourself in the comments and prepare for your shaming. The Arizona Diamondbacks lineup erupted against the Oakland Athletics tonight securing more hits than they had in the entire previous series against the Milwaukee Brewers. For the first time in what seems a substantial amount of games, they had more hits, extra base hits, and runs than they did strikeouts as a unit. Pair that with another effective outing from Patrick Corbin on the mound to get this Memorial Day weekend started on the right foot.
