Snake Pit Sim Season: 7/7 - Ugly But Satisfying

If I were to mention to someone that Jon Duplantier only managed to go 3 23 innings in his start and that the Diamondbacks supported him by committing not one or two, but actually three errors, and that the bullpen also allowed an additional nine hits and four runs in their 5 13 innings of work, all of this in the lofty confines of Colorado, most would be inclined to figure the Arizona Diamondbacks were blown out by the Rockies. This was anything but a typical game. The Diamondbacks, a team finding a good deal of success based almost entirely on pitching and defense, found itself to do either very well on Tuesday.
