Snake Pit Sim Season Off-day Update: Race for the NL West

In the real world, the Diamondbacks just finished winning a series in Colorado against the Rockies, tightening up the NL West a bit. In the simulated season, today also marked the end of a four-game series against the Colorado Rockies (played in Phoenix). This is a game the Diamondbacks won, giving them a season record of 65-59 after 124 games of play. What is more important is, it placed them only 1.5 games behind the division leading Los Angeles Dodgers, with the Diamondbacks headed to Los Angeles to play the Dodgers for three over the weekend. After early struggles, the Diamondbacks turned themselves around in late-April and have spent the rest of the season in the driver’ seat when it comes to the Wild Card standings.
