Caleb Smith was tabbed for the start as Arizona continued looking for answers to their rotation issues. The bullpen held their own. The offense found some rare timely hitting. Oh, Josh Rojas and Marcus Stroman did some jaw-jacking that resulted in the benches clearing and then Stroman took issue with a sarcastic comment by Bob Brenly.
Josh Rojas popped out to end the fifth inning, but that was just the beginning of the excitement.
“He was looking at me after I flew out. We made eye contact and then we had an exchange of words, but, I mean, just trying to get the guys going,” Rojas said.
