Overall, the D-backs have scored 4.37 runs per game, almost exactly at the National League average of 4.38. But part of the issue is when they have scored them. The offense has been great at “piling on” and padding the lead - but not so impressive at doing so in close games, when one or two runs would have made the difference. As Jack noted last week, the D-backs have been particularly “good” at scoring three runs or fewer. Here’s how their scoring breaks down in percentages of games, compared to the average across the NL (AZ on the left/in red; NL on the right/in blue).
