That was the cry from the Chase Field broadcast booth as the Arizona Diamondbacks hosted the Colorado Rockies Wednesday night.

The Arizona Diamondbacks can’t salvage anything more than a. 500 season, though they’d surely like to treat their fans to a strong home finish after mostly miserable play at Chase Field down the stretch. Ray allowed two runs in the first inning, and Carlos Gonzalez tacked on a solo homer in the third. The ball was over the fence, but bounced off the fan in the front row and back into the field of play. Arizona catcher Welington Castillo, who hit a go-ahead, two-run double in the seventh, finished with three RBIs.
Arenado drove in Reyes in the first with a fly ball for his major-league leading 127th RBI.
After being mercilessly mocked for taking a string of selfies at a baseball game, Arizona State University’s Alpha Chi Omega sorority chose to use their newfound popularity for good.
During Wednesday night’s game between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Colorado Rockies, several members of a local college sorority were caught on camera taking selfies of themselves and each other.
The Rockies have been fine on offense, as they lead the National League in runs (712) and rank second with a. 266 team batting average and 182 home runs.
Socrates shows his stuff: When outfielder David Peralta jammed his right wrist in the top of the fourth inning it opened the door for rookie Socrates Brito to get in the game, and he made the most of his opportunity. The fourth-place San Diego Padres are 74-85 with three games remaining.
In his last outing, Anderson struck out a career-high 10 and allowed a run in six innings, but ended up with a no-decision in the 4-1 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Peralta was checked by a trainer but finished the inning, only to be pinch-hit for in the bottom of the fourth. The D-backs did not disclose the exact nature of the injury but said X-rays were negative. I hope not. I’m not a very good self-promoter. He’s 4-7 with a 5.55 ERA on the road this season. Arizona RHP Brad Ziegler is scheduled to rejoin the team Friday. 302 at home this season, easily the best in baseball.
