SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Archie Bradley is trying to change things up a little this year, literally.
The D-backs right-hander is working on mixing a changeup into his repertoire as he competes with Brad Boxberger and Yoshihisa Hirano for the closer's spot.
Bradley allowed four runs on two hits while walking three over 1 1/3 innings Tuesday afternoon in a 14-12 loss to the Giants.
But numbers, especially during Spring Training, don't always tell the full story.
For one thing, three of the runs scored after Bradley left the game, and the hits came against his changeup, a pitch he threw once all of last season when he relied mainly on his fastball and curve.
