That didn’t start well. Or end well. The Diamondbacks get a lot of mileage out of not overswinging and create some of their own luck. But Marte was out at the plate — I’m gonna stand by that. Nice work by Albert Almora Jr., though, and a couple of deep flies... I’ll take that going forward. The rest, well, you saw, too. Al has the details in the recap.
Usually I hate the other team’s announcers. Not so in this case... I always liked Bob Brenly and Steve Berthiaume isn’t terrible. I just would have liked a different game — that had lots of ugly.
