Dbacks 3, Phillies 4: Humpty Dumpty

Because all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't put the Dbacks together again...

This game was easily winnable. A contender would have won it. The Diamondbacks are not contenders, and this showed tonight. Three main factors played into this loss, but there were a few good things too. Let's start with the bad, and then we'll alternate between good and bad as we break this one down.

Zack Grienke

Yeah. This one hurts. As Jim mentioned, I was lucky enough to be at this game. I got to see the very confusing dance between Grienke, Hale, and the umpires take place at the start of the third inning in person.
