Last year, the D-backs didn’t even lose more than three in a row until game #88 on July 6. Tonight was their fifth consecutive loss, with a combination of factors in the defeat. Zac Gallen barely made it through five innings, Scott McGough and Joe Mantiply struggled out of the bullpen, and the offense performed its usual vanishing trick down the stretch. I get that injuries have certainly played a part, and we probably should not judge the team until we get both Eduardo Rodriguez and Jordan Montgomery in the rotation. We also had worse - much worse - stretches last season (remember the nine-game losing streak to start August?
