Well, they were never going to win a surprise bullpen game with Zac Gallen on the mound anyway, right? Though, to be fair, they probably wouldn’t have fared much better even if Triston McKenzie wasn’t a late scratch — the offense was simply nowhere to be seen tonight. In better news, Bo Naylor arrives tomorrow and is expected to start on Sunday.
As for tonight’s game, it went about as you’d expect. Even in the loss, Touki Toussaint should be proud of what he did on the mound. Pitching in the majors for the first time since last September, he held the Diamondbacks to two runs over 3.
