On the very night the Diamondbacks celebrated their 25th anniversary they shattered a demoralizing nine-game losing streak, securing their first official victory of the month of August.
Mirroring his exceptional performance against the Padres in his previous start, Zac Gallen provided the spark that the Diamondbacks needed by tossing six shutout innings while allowing just four hits. Tonight, Gallen picked up his first win since July 7th, over a month ago.
And behind Gallen, the Diamondbacks bullpen was excellent.
