Snake Bytes: 6/9 - 18 and Counting

Christian Walker gave the Diamondbacks a rare early lead when he launched a solo home run in the second inning. Then, the wheels fell off in the fourth inning for Jon Duplantier and Alex Young was only able to add gasoline to the fire. Arizona’s offense then went to sleep, managing only one more run in the game.

Chris Bassit was dealing in Oakland on Tuesday night. The right-hander struck out six, walked one, and allowed a pair of runs on four hits in seven innings of work. The Diamondbacks, well, they allowed five runs in the fourth inning - the only frame the allowed any scoring.
