Preview, #1: 3/29 vs. Rockies

Interesting to compare the starting line-ups for the two teams tonight, with those for that monumental wild-card game on October 4 last year. The Rockies are less changed: Ian Desmond takes over from Mark Reynolds at first, and former D-back Chris Iannetta is now their catcher, not Jonathan Lucroy. But seven of the same starting nine are back at Chase Field, and will likely be hungry for revenge. On the D-backs side, we not longer have J.D. Martinez, and Daniel Descalso is on the bench. There’s also a different battery from the Zack Greinke/Jeff Mathis pairing we saw last October.
