Trouble in the Bullpen

Arizona Diamondbacks



Not a very good start to the 2014 season for the Arizona Diamondbacks.


Let's call it:  trouble in the bullpen.

Arizona fell to 1-5 after losing 8-5 to the San Francisco Giants at Chase Field today. The Diamondbacks led 5-3 thanks to home runs from Paul Goldschmidt and Mark Trumbo, but a five-run eighth inning by the Giants turned the tide in this one -- giving San Francisco the series, three games to one.

Reliever Will Harris was saddled with the loss. Bronson Arroyo pitched the first 4 1/3 for the D'backs. Harris gave up five runs on three hits -- including a three-run homer to Angel Pagan.

Goldschmidt went 2 for 4 and extended his hitting streak to 25 games -- second longest in franchise history.

The Diamondbacks pack their bags and head for Denver and a three-game series with the Rockies.
