Just as Rubby De La Rosa channeled his inner Rubby De La Rosa last night, so Jeremy Hellickson played the role of Jeremy Hellickson to perfection tonight. This was the kind of excruciating mediocrity we have come to expect, even though it has only been five major-league starts for Hellickson since he came to Arizona. Early struggles, a lot of pitching from the stretch and a glacial pace which made the entire experience like having your Brazilian wax session carried out by Dr. Josef Mengele. The first four innings took basically an hour and three-quarters, and at that point, we had a shot at only the third four-hour regulation game in team history.
Diamondbacks 4, Dodgers 6: Down for the count
