Patience leads to production in key spots
Peralta's RBI double 0:27 7/28/15: David Peralta laces a double to the left-field wall, driving in Paul Goldschmidt from first and padding the D-backs' leadTuesday, however, was precisely what manager Chip Hale had been looking for.
With runners in scoring position, the D-backs stayed patient against Mariners starter Hisashi Iwakuma, waiting for pitches up in the zone instead of chasing splitters in the dirt. The D-backs had their most productive offensive night in five games -- eight runs on 12 hits -- and they did it with just three extra-base hits.
