Joe Camporeale-USA TODAY Sports Don’t look now, but it is the final day of May and the Diamondbacks have the second best record in the entire NL. Diamondbacks News Colorado 1, Arizona 5Arizona did exactly what a winning club should do to a doormat club like Colorado, they beat them comfortably, without any unnecessary drama or stress. Gallen Remains Untouchable at Home It took him about two innings to feel out his groove, but Zac Gallen pitched like a Cy Young candidate and lowered his Chase Field ERA on the season to a miniscule 0.66.

Colorado Rockies game no. 56 thread: Kyle Freeland vs. Zac Gallen

Photo by Justin K. Aller/ Tonight is all about pitching. The Rockies look to even out their series with the Diamondbacks tonight in Phoenix. They were competitive in Game 1 with Ryan McMahon almost hitting for the cycle, but, in end the end, they just couldn’t get it done. Pitching for the Rockies is Kyle Freeland, who goes into this game with 3.86 ERA in 58.1 innings. Zac Gallen, one of the best pitchers in MLB, will be on the hill for the D-Backs. Gallen has a 2.97 ERA in 66.2 innings. It should be a great evening for pitching. Now to the details. First Pitch:...

D-Backs 5, Phillies 6: Pain, Thy Name Is Philly

I know the feeling Pavin. | Photo by Mitchell Leff/ TL;DR: Zac Gallen was great, the bats couldn’t find the big, knockout hit, and a beleaguered bullpen couldn’t hold a mostly lifeless Phillies offense late to allow the sweep to wriggle free. Dear Reader, I won’t blame you a bit if you read the TL;DR for this one and go on with your day and enjoy the beautiful May weather. There will be plenty of time for D-Backs baseball through the long, hot (but hopefully not too dry) summer months ahead. This game is one that hopefully fades from memory quickly as a small...

Meme Monday 5/22: Zacocalypse

Friends, the Diamondbacks are real hot right now when it comes to taking a series. It came real close to a different story after a shocking Zac Gallen defeat in game 1 of the Pirates series. Not that I’m too worried. It was a stunning loss that saw Gallen out of the game before the 4th inning. Gallen’s final line: 3.2 IP 8 H 8 R 4 BB 2 SO. The Zacopalypse... The Diamondbacks put that game behind them and took the remaining 2 games and the series from the Pirates. It could have easily gone either way. The team is off to Philly to face Bryce Harper’s chin and the Phillies...

SnakePit Round Table: Spilt Gallen

Photo by Joe Sargent/ In which we discuss, the Zacpocalypse, the lead-off spot and - inevitably - the bullpen... How much of a shock was Zac Gallen’s Friday Night Fright? Justin: Well, the Zachocalypse was certainly shocking for those watching, but there were those that foresaw this. People had been saying “Gallen didnt have his best stuff and…” for a few starts. Looks like it caught up to him. Incidentally, I was not aware of that when I wrote the preview. Spencer: He should be sent down when Davies comes back! Am I doing the 2023 D’Backs fan thingy right?...

Arizona Diamondbacks 7, San Francisco Giants 2: Dom’d If You Do

Photo by Chris Coduto/ On the night of another solid start from Zac Gallen, the Cy Young hopeful was overshadowed by the performance Dominic Fletcher at the plate and in the outfield. Not gonna lie I was a little nervous going into this recap despite Zac Gallen being on the mound. It has been a bit of a rough week for the Arizona Diamondbacks dropping two of three to the Miami Marlins and the series opener to the San Francisco Giants. In our Brute Squad group text between myself, Patrick, Nik, and Lopez there was a sense of despair as we headed into the weekend on the...
