7:10 P.M. start time.
The NL 31-24 AZ Diamondbacks come to town Friday night to face off against the AL 28-29 Mariners.
Two right-handed pitchers let fly with their stuff. M's want to get to .500 and above; lose and they drop to .483.
Arizona is 7 games above .500 (.564), yet 4 1/2 behind the Dodgers.

Corbin Carroll, Ildemaro Vargas, Nolan Arenado & Ketel Marte are the best and baddest D-Backs hitters.

We have a significant starting pitching advantage in every game.

How about solid professional at bats as opposed to getting ourselves out please.

They've scored 27 runs in the past 31 innings. If that is due to unprofessional at bats so be it. LOL

Hopefully that wasn't like the series at Wrigley last year where Solano and Garver turned back the clock for a few days.

Well all RH starters with average of 4.90 ERAs so we better score at least 15-20 runs this series if without contributions from the Island of misfit RH platoon bats.

True, Gallen was really good but has stunk it up the past two seasons, Nelson is decent but has been blah this season, and Kelly like Gallen used to be good but is now dogshit.

I see that Carroll is on pace to lead the majors in triples for the fourth straight season. As much of a lost art as triples are, he might have 20+ this season.
