Alex Young was not particularly sharp. The Arizona offense continued to slump, despite home runs by Jon Jay and (checks notes...) Christian Walker(!). The result, the Diamondbacks have now lost seven in a row, coming directly off their improbable six-game winning streak.
If only just one part of Arizona’s game could be identified as the culprit. However, it seems like the Diamondbacks are finding plenty of different ways to lose.
It was far from a great performance by Arizona’s pitching. The combination of Trevor Story and Nolan Arenado went 4-for-9 with two RBI and four runs scored.
