“We felt like this guy has kind of epitomized what we’re trying to get through as an organization”, manager Chip Hale said.

“The one thing we know about him is that he is a big-time competitor”, Hale said. “He fit right in and didn’t seem to be bothered by anything”. As a team the Brewers are hitting. Pollock had three hits and two RBIs for the Diamondbacks (44-50), who won for just the second time in nine games. “I like it. I’m happy that they have given me the opportunity”.
Godley, acquired from the Chicago Cubs as part of the Miguel Montero trade in the offseason, scattered four hits and recorded seven strikeouts, setting the franchise mark for most Ks in their big league debut. Pregame’s at 8:05pm, with first pitch at 8:40pm on 1150-WHBY.
“You’ll see that tomorrow”, Hale said. “That’s not easy to do”.
Pollock has possessed a torrid bat in July and looks to continue the production when the Arizona Diamondbacks host the Milwaukee Brewers in Friday’s second contest of a four-game set.
Fiers (5-8) finished up the frame by striking out the side for the second consecutive inning, but his night was ended with his pitch count at 101 and his spot due up to lead off the sixth. The Brewers failed to score in the third after putting runners on first and third with no outs.
The subject of trade rumors, ex-Diamondback Gerardo Parra is batting. “The play that turned the game in his favor was that double play”.
“Not really a secret, just being aggressive, ” Fiers said. After Hernandez drove in Tomas for his first major league RBI, Ender Inciarte lined a two-out single to center.
Inciarte’s two-out single drove in Hill, and Hernandez scored when center fielder Carlos Gomez’s wide throw got past third base for his second throwing error of the game, increasing the lead to 4-0. Fiers allowed four earned runs and walked two.
The Brewers dodged a major bullet in the sixth when Parra was drilled in the knee by a 90-mph slider thrown by Godley.
Ryan Braun’s three-run homer in the ninth inning accounted for the Brewers’ output. It was Goldschmidt’s 10th hit and fourth double in 15 official plate appearances over four games against the Brewers this season.
Godley (1-0) threw 88 pitches, including 66 strikes and 14 first-pitch strikes to the 21 batters he faced.
Counsell, hired in May, returned to Chase Field for the first time as a manager after playing for the Diamondbacks from 2000-03 and 2005-06.
“I’m lost for words to say about him but it’s fun watching him play right now”, Counsell said.
The crowd cheered Counsell when he was shown on the video board before the second inning, and Counsell waved in acknowledgment. Milwaukee is far removed from the playoff race and dealt veteran third baseman Aramis Ramirez to the Pittsburgh Pirates for minor-league right-hander Yhonathan Barrios prior to Thursday’s game.
