Well that was a bad game all around for the Arizona Diamondbacks as they lost to the San Francisco Giants 11-3 on Wednesday night.  The fifth and sixth innings were like a dagger in the hear of the Diamondbacks as the Giants blew the game wide open with four runs in each of the innings.

Diamondbacks starting pitcher Doug Davis was roughed up for nine hits and six runs in only five innings of action.  Davis served up a grand slam to Ray Durham before being taken out of the game.  Davis’s record is now 2-2 on the season.

The Diamondbacks bullpen wasn’t much better than Davis however.  Juan Cruz gave up three runs before leaving the game with a sore neck, Doug Slaten and Edgar Gonzalez both gave up one run before Brandon Lyon was finally able to come in and pitch a scoreless inning.

Mark Reynolds had a solo home run in the eighth inning for the Diamondbacks.  Other then that it was a two-run double by Justin Upton in the sixth inning that scored the other two runs for the D-backs.

Overall it was just a bad game for the Diamondbacks, and hopefully they will come out on Thursday afternoon and pick up a win against these same Giants.
