Diamondbacks 8, Giants 5: Not that close

Drey Jameson continued to make a good case for winning the fifth starter’s job with another good spring outing at Scottsdale Stadium this afternoon. He retired all six batters he faced, two of them by the strikeout. Small sample size, naturally, but four innings of one-hit ball would seem to fall into the “making a statement” category. The next four innings were also scoreless, courtesy of Miguel Castro, Kyle Nelson, Kevin Ginkel and Zach McAllister. Then the B-bullpen showed up, to make the Giants feel less sad, and conceded five runs on six hits and two walks over the final three innings.
