Diamondbacks 4, Giants 2: Can't spell Webster without a W

Record: 29-32. Pace: 77-85. Change on 2014: +4.

In future years, Allen Webster may become the answer to a Diamondbacks' trivia question. Which pitcher got to hit for the team, before he threw a pitch for them? For such was the case this afternoon, as A.J. Pollock led off the first and second innings for Arizona, because Ryan Vogelsong appeared to change his name to Ryan ControlGone [look, it's been a long week, people - work with me here]. That seemed quite unlikely, as the first two batters up made outs in six pitches: but it then took Vogelsong seven attempts and 32 additional pitches to get that tricky third out.
