Delgado deserved a better fate

Randall Delgado, the Diamondbacks starting pitcher against San Francisco last night, deserved a better fate. Seems to be a familiar tune with the D'backs -- good starting pitching, but no run support.

The Giants beat the D'backs at Chase Field 1-0 in the series opener as Tim Lincecum (8-13) out duels Delgado (4-5). Delgado allows just three hits, while Lincecum gives up six hits. Adam Eaton and Miguel Montero collect two apiece, Paul Goldschmidt had one hit and Martin Prado hit safely -- and that was it.

Arizona falls to 68-65, 10 1/2 games back of the LA Dodgers. The Cincinnati Reds (75-60) lose to Colorado, 9-6, while the Dodgers (79-55) beat San Diego, 9-2.
