It seems like forever since I made a pledge not consciously to watch a full D-backs game until they won consecutive contests. My logic was, if the team was going to play like a franchise 15 below .500, showing up out of contractual obligation, then I was going to watch in the same fashion. But, hey, they were in the thick of a September pennant race: surely they’d string two W’s together soon enough. Here we sit, game #149 in the book and I’m not going to be watching until game #152, at the very earliest.
