This evening's contest at Chase Field began with a bit of bad news. Both TV announcers, play-by-play man Steve Berthiaume and color analyst Bob Brenly had tested positive for COVID, and so were not in the booth. We wish them both a speedy recovery. It's going to make for a bit of a nervous few days. I would presume they were traveling with the team on the recent road-trip. Let's hope the outbreak goes no further than the broadcast team.
As for the game, it was a little bit of everything that had both troubled and encouraged the Diamondbacks over the first 13 games.
