One brief bit of static spoiled what was, all told, a decently pitched game by Zac Gallen and the D-backs. With two outs in the second, he allowed four straight baserunners to reach, including a two-run homer. This was it, though a 2.2 inning outing all told is likely shorter than he’d have liked. Gallen ended up scattering five hits and a walk, and didn’t record any strikeouts. The rest of the pitching was good, the bullpen tossing 6.1 scoreless on three hits, with no walks and six K’s. That included frames from likely Opening Day candidates, Joe Mantiply, Andew Saalfrank and Scott McGough.
