Diamondbacks Notes: No notesAstros Notes: The Diamondbacks left the tying and winning runs on base in the bottom half of the 7th, as the Astros quelled a serious late rally by the spirited D’backs. Hurler DK steadied himself and earned the save, just moments after he drilled a shot in the street at picturesque Willard Middle School, in what would be the winning margin in this tough, well played game. Geo laid down the perfect bunt on a suicide squeeze that plated 2 Astros, as hard charging Spencer scored from second on the play. Griffin and Kani teamed up for a beautiful 5-3-5 double play that extinguished an earlier D’Back threat. DR 'The Doctor'and Eli did the heavy lifting for the Diamondbacks, each scoring 4 runs while sharing pitching duties. |
