Snake Bytes: 5/28 - At Least It Wasn’t a Rout

Diamondbacks News

Los Angeles 6, Arizona 4
The Dodgers jumped all over Madison Bumgarner in the second inning and never looked back. By the time the Diamondbacks made any sort of spirited attempt at a comeback, it was already the ninth inning and the Snakes were trailing by four.

Bats Waking Up Still Not Enough
Josh Rojas and Jose Herrera both had three hits each in the Friday night tilt against the Dodgers. Unfortunately, those hits, along with three others, still were not enough to overcome the offensive juggernaut that is the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Dodgers Ride Long Ball to Down Snakes
The Dodgers managed seven hits off of Madison Bumgarner through six innings of work. Unfortunately for Bumgarner and the Diamondbacks, three of those seven hits landed in the seats.
