Now I'm forced to hope Buxton doesn't get his cycle.

He will. Just not this game...

Dick: "a spinning roller".

Well, of course it is.

A pitching change? Now?

Molly trying to get everybody but Garver in I see.

Oh, I like This! Turley getting a shot.

 

That last Sano at bat almost made me cry it was so beautiful.

Probably a few Diamondbacks fans crying right now.

 

I really wonder if the DBacks came into the game with a little bit of arrogance thinking they had this, especially after going up 3 runs right away.

 

NOW Perkins can pitch the 9th.

Got the neck beard part right

What, Turley is now the closer? Or does every pitcher get in this one?

Dick: "a spinning roller".

Well, of course it is.

Well, it might have been a rolling spinner...

 

Got the neck beard part right

False.

 

Turley doesn't part his neck beard.

Sano has one of the best arms I've ever seen.

I approve of this move too...getting Turley into a game as a reliever.

 

And he was throwing mid 90s.

 

winnah!

Sano has one of the best arms I've ever seen.

Haven't seen too many, huh?

Nice game!

Darn fine game. Hard to criticize much about that one. 

Why am I so intrigued about Turley as a RP? Just a gut feeling he could be good there.

Really rewarding to see that offensive outburst from our young core, especially at home.  I was stuck with the Diamondback's broadcast, and the announcers were really impressed by our young hitters.

This team is literally unbeatable when leading by 7 in the ninth.

I like the Dbacks broadcasters.

Now you've gone and done it.

Really fun game to watch tonight. Nice win.

 

Couldn't have gone anybody better elsewhere, either. KC, Angels, and Yankees all lost. Twins back holding the second Wild Card spot.

The 8th is a different story

Serves him right for not being a very nice guy when I interacted with him a few times at my old job

Winner!!!

 

 

Tails were battling so hard tonight. Good to see Grady on the third base side at TF.

pffft.  Every single Dback still had his tail at game's end.
