[AZ Central] Madison Bumgarner wins season finale in Diamondbacks’ win over Rockies - Diamondbacks left-hander Madison Bumgarner returned to the dugout between innings on Sunday and offered a fist bump to pitching coach Matt Herges. “He gave me a, ‘Hey, did you see that?’” Herges said. “I’m like, ‘The 91?’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, absolutely.’” In addition to touching 91 mph for the first time this season, Bumgarner on Sunday breezed through five scoreless innings in a 11-3 win over the Colorado Rockies. It was his second consecutive sharp performance to end the season, and it undoubtedly gave the Diamondbacks some measure of relief as they head into the winter.
