Diamondbacks @/vs Angels: "Ray~Hellickson~Anderson~Webster"

[Davis_Mike]

I bet he swings at the first pitch...

 

[The Derski]

Cmon Tomas.....

 

[Davis_Mike]

That pitch was off the plate. You don't see Tomas often complain, he wasn't happy with that. Don't get tossed, I don't want to see Hill playing in the OF.

 

[Suns7]

Great Pitching by Ray. Hopefully we can get 5 games in a row of quality pitching with a quality game tomorrow!

 

[The Derski]

Nice win

 

[Jonas_steven]

Good win boys! Let's take the series tomorrow!

 

[Davis_Mike]

Inciarte is going on the DL. Time for the Peter O'Brien era to begin. Bring him up Chip. Put him RF, Tomas at 1B, & Goldy as the DH.

 

[The Derski]

Damn

 

[BACKSfromAZ]

Yeah good looking lineup except I'd rather see Salty in there vs Weaver because he has good career numbers vs him.

Really? My hope is to never see Salty play again for the Dbacks.

Maybe I'm missing something? I see frequently passed balls when he's catching and IMO the worst batter on the roster.

Several people on the dbacks Facebook page are supporting reeds performance. I did not realize substance abuse was so high in this state!

I stay away from facebook pages for sports teams. There are too many 'casual' fans & others who use facebook.

I don't think Reed pitch terrible. The initial mess was not of his making. He was ahead of Trout 0-2 or 1-2 when he spiked that wild pitch. Then he gave up a double to the best player in baseball. After that, he went up 0-2 on Pujols, eventually getting the out, if by just a few feet. The 9th was an easy 1-2-3.

I can see why some would support this outing. The runs are basically on Lamb.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Looks like it is AAAA hitter Dorn getting the call-up. I won't be surprised if he gets the start at first tonight.

Haven't been on SportsHoopla in ages and have not been the Dbacks as closely this year, but I am looking to get back on SportsHoopla more often. Good to see Goldy is on a tear yet again.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Welcome back @nogicat.

Goldy as DH ... Dorn in first game coming in.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Hale is playing a risky game bringing Dorn up instead of an speedy type OF. Lets hope AJ doesn't need a day off over the next 2 weeks, because we have absolutely no one on the roster who can play CF. I guess Peralta can play it in a pinch, but that is iffy.

 

[Suns7]

I'm here two Nights in a row. It's a record!

 

[Suns7]

Beautiful bunt

 

[BACKSfromAZ]

I think team are figuring out Tomas has problems hitting anything other than fastballs.

I have noticed that since the beginning as well.

 

[Jonas_steven]

Can we send dorm back down for O'brien...please?
