Snake Bytes, 6/16: No brooms for you

[AZ Central] Diamondbacks fall short of series sweep of Padres ahead of road trip - On the 10th pitch of the at-bat, Kelly went back to his change-up, one that dipped below the strike zone. Cronenworth was all over it, launching it out to right field. The sequence seemed to encapsulate the day for both Kelly and the Diamondbacks. They did not play poorly in their 8-2 loss to the Padres. They were just beaten. These things happen. Certainly, it is easier to reach those sorts of conclusions when the loss snaps a five-game winning streak, as this one did.
