Diamondbacks 6, Royals 6: Fit to be tied

Luke Weaver was the starter, and as in his last Cactus League outing on March 9, the long-ball continues to give him trouble. A pair of home-runs were responsible for three of the four runs Weaver allowed this afternoon, after giving up three his previous time out. All told, he has allowed five HR in 9.1 innings of work. Small sample size, obviously, but it does suggest a lot of hard contact. This afternoon, it started with the first batter - is it just me, or do there seem to have been a lot of homers leading off games this year?
