Diamondbacks 2, San Diego 5: What’s the Opposite of “Closer”?

So new Diamondback right-hander Zach Davies took the mound for the third game of this young, dewy-eyed season, facing off against the very large Padres righty Joe Musgrove. Musgrove was quite good, by the numbers anyway, in San DIego last year, while Davies kinda sucked for the Cubs in 2021, but looked pretty good in Spring Training outings since joining our squad.

Davies did his business in the top half of the first, retiring the first two batters he faced on weak grounders to the right side of the infield that Christian Walker fielded and Davies himself completed by covering first base.
