D-backs reaping rewards of surging offense
Trumbo's solo jack 0:41 5/7/15: Mark Trumbo clubs a solo home run deep into the left-field seats, his fourth of the season, opening the scoring for the D-backs PHOENIX -- The D-backs hitters wish they had a better answer, or at least a more satisfying one, to the question of why their offense fires on all cylinders some nights and not on others.
The truth is, though, that sometimes a good approach at the plate does not translate into good results.
In the past two days and three games, the D-backs have produced 29 runs -- 18 in a doubleheader Wednesday against the Rockies and another 11 in a shutout win over the Padres on Thursday night at Chase Field.
