Last week’s edition included a bonus entry for the day game on Thursday, while there was also an off-day on Monday. So, this one will be relatively brief. Which is fine by me, as I’ve got poisoned needles to stick into my Tom Hallion-shaped doll... And that’s a nice segue into our umpire-related
Tweet of the Week

The air-conditioning at Chase Field appears to be firing on significantly fewer cylinders than the team has been...
I think all 40 thousand plus fans inside should scream "FIX THE AIR! FIX THE AIR! FIX THE AIR!!"

@Dbacks can you please do something about the cotton candy and popcorn vendors? Those towers constantly block the view of the field

At least when your team isn't doing so hot, you find out who the true fans are. It's a 162 game season for a reason. #MLB #Dbacks

Indeed. Which brings me to our bandwagon fan of the week, whose Tweet is a perfect example of why I’m so frustrated with the section of D-backs fandom, which can’t even handle a two-game losing streak without complaint.
Starting to lose interest if they can't win the big games…
