Rising pitching prospect David Holmberg tossed a complete game one-hitter last night against Pensacola.
A big bounce-back from one team this week, who discovered that giving is more blessed than receiving, especially when it comes to a shutout...
The starter for the Diamondbacks in Tuesday's game against the Marlins has been announced, and it's Randall Delgado.

One subject dominated D-backs discussion for much of yesterday. And it wasn't the game against the Padres.
Dbacksskins reports on the opening game of the Reno Aces/Tucson Padres match-up on Friday night.
