2019 Arizona Diamondbacks Thread

[Eco]

Quickly approaching the end of the year, and currently we are 3.5 games behind the Cubs for the last Wild Card spot.

Been playing well recently, and while ESPN only gives up a 6% chance of amking the playoffs, I think their might be a chance we can catch the Cubbies.

Upcoming Schedule is as follows:

Sep 4 - vs Padres

Sep 6/8 - at Reds

Sep 9/12 - at Mets

Sep 13/15 - vs Reds

Sep 16/18 - vs Marlins

Gallen currently throwing a no hitter after 6.

Backs are leaving WAY too many people on base, currently have 2 with 1 out.

0-0 Bot 6

GRAND FUCKING SLAM!

Marte hits a homerun with bases loaded, to make it 4-0 in the Bot 7th.

 

[Eco]

Dbacks up 4-0 at the end of the 7th.

6 more outs boys. Let's finish this.

 

[Eco]

Damnit - Wil Myers hits a HR to lead off the 9th.

4-1 Dbacks

 

[Eco]

And that's it. Dbacks win 4-1.

Now are just 3 games out of the last WC spot

 

[Eco]

Big series starting against the Reds. This should be one we are taking 2 out of 3 from.

Tonight's starters are Ray vs Mahle.

 

[Eco]

MARTE!

3 Run shot in the 5th makes it 4-2 Backs.

 

[Eco]

6-2 AZ going into the bottom of the 5th.

Sadly Cubbies are up 1-0 in Milwaukee.

 

[Eco]

Missed opportunity there.

Middle of the 6th, D-Backs now up 6-5.

 

[Eco]

What a catch by Dyson! Might have saved a run there.

 

[Eco]

Ginkel being clutch there. Reds has runners on 1st and 2nd, no outs, and he strikes out 2, and gets another to fly out.

We head to the 8th inning.

 

[Eco]

Clutch hit from Flores adds another run for Arizona.

7-5 Dbacks.

 

[Eco]

Just 3 more outs.

 

[Eco]

Cubs get rocked in Milwaukee, so we are 3 games out of the final WC slot. Win here and it goes to 2.5.

C'mon Dbacks!

 

[Eco]

and finally, it's over.

Diamondbacks win 7-5, and improve to 10-1 in the last 11 games.

Keep it up boys!

Great win today, 2-0 at the Reds.

This team is on fire and playing great baseball.

Now we need Milwaukee to do us a favor!
