Diamondbacks 7, Padres 8: And, so, it begins

Arizona lost their season opener to San Diego, with Madison Bumgarner getting lit up by the Padres for the second consecutive season. However, the team did show considerable fight, coming back from 6-1 down to snatch a lead at the half-way point. While the bullpen couldn’t make it stand up, this game was considerably more entertaining than it looked like it was going to be at the end of the fourth!

The Diamondbacks strung together some hits to get on the board in the top of the first. Ketel Marte was able just to leg out a swinging bunt.
