You'll have to apologize with me on this recap. I wasn't able to watch the game due to some unforeseen circumstances and know nothing about the outcome other than the fact the Dbacks won! Yay! In honor of the victory, we'll allow other people to describe what happened via Twitter. Hope you got your tweeting on tonight!

Things were quiet for the first 3 innings:
#Dbacks Tweets: Through 3, @godleyzt is just one over the minimum. He'll bat after Nick Ahmed in the home… #MLB http://t.co/lIb2w8KOJ7

David Peralta started the offense off.
@dperalta6 doubles to left. Can't defensive shift this guy anymore. He hits to all fields. Average way over .300 @mlb #dbacks future allstar

And Jarrod Saltalamacchia followed. 2-0
Saltalamacchia with a 2-run HR off Heston to give the #Dbacks a 2-0 lead in the 4th #SFGiants

Remember that 25'-high CF wall? Salty just sent a ball over it. #Dbacks lead 2-0 in the 4th. pic.twitter.com/wJEwcVF1uW

GOOD TOOTBLAN
Could've been 1st and 2nd, no outs if Byrd doesn't make that base running error. Nice play from Owings though. #SFGiants #Dbacks

Zack Godley finished after 5 IP
Zack Godley's final line tonight: 5.0 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 5 K's, 1 BB #Dbacks

Chafin was wild, but kept the Dbacks lead at 2-1
Somewhat of a wild start to Chafin's turn on the bump. Pun intended. Run charged to Godley ... #Dbacks still up 2-1 in B6

Dbacks run into trouble in the 7th
First and third, two outs, Posey pinch-hitter in 2-1 game. #Dbacks Hale walks Posey to load the bases. The right move, whatever happens next

But Randall Delgado gets the clutch out to end it
And it worked. 2-1 #Dbacks lead. #StandAndStretch https://t.co/F050j8JDSZ

BAD TOOTBLAN
Once Tomlinson slowed the ball a tick, #Dbacks Inciarte running all the way for hustle double to shortish CF. Then runs into a CS 2-5. Oops.

After the bullpen struggled in the 8th...
Reynolds doesn't last long. Walks Brandon Belt. Here comes Ziegler with two on, one out #MLB #Dbacks #SFGiants

Easy as pie, Dbacks win!
