Diamondbacks 7, Mets 2: Blustered for the Win

After last night’s heartbreaking walkoff loss, the combination of a sluggish start to the season for the offense and an unusual cold snap in the New York area would probably have resulted in a slow start for most teams. Instead, the D-Backs looked extremely well-prepared and aggressive, scoring early and often to immediately put the […]

Giants shut out Phillies again to take series

Things were very different in 2013. Barry Zito was completing a wildly successful eight-year contract with the San Francisco Giants.

And Look At Us, We’re a Disaster: Cubs 6, Rays 2

Through four innings, this was an enjoyable game. Joe Boyle and Colin Rea took two different approaches attacking hitters as each limited the other side to just one run. Boyle made an early mistake missing his location on a putaway sweeper that Nico Hoerner converted into a leadoff home run, but then Boyle quickly rebounded […]

The offense started early and didn’t stop until well past clobberin’ time, leading to an 8-2 victory over the Angels. Meanwhile, Grant Holmes did […]
