The Arizona Diamondbacks suffered a 5-0 loss to the Washtington Nationals on Wednesday evening.  The Diamondbacks just couldn’t get anything going at the plate as they were only able to come up with three hits the entire the game.  The series is now evened up at one game each and they will play the rubber match on Thursday.

Micah Owings tossed 5 2/3 innings to start the game for the Diamondbacks.  He allowed one hit and three runs as he took the loss to fall to 6-8 on the year.  Five walks really seemed to hurt Owings in the game as he just didn’t have the control that he usually does.

Conor Robertson came in after Owings left the game and gave up two more runs while only recording the one out which was the final out in the sixth inning.  Leo Rosales and Yusmeiro Petit tossed the seventh and eighth innings without giving up any more runs to the Nationals.

As the offense was only able to come up with three hits there really isn’t much to blog about to be honest about the offense.  Hopefully they will swing the bats better on Thursday.
