Diamondbacks 5, Rays 0

One immediate Jake Lamb home-run later.
Chip Hale, motivational genius.

And then there's this, which is the point at which I officially gave up.
This DBacks game may be boring but we have managed to get the wave to go around the entire stadium 6x.

Nothing more fun than angry old ladies. It's too hot, too crowded, you're using my cup holder, I hate children, I hate signs
