A season slipping away

This is beginning to look really bleak. Every run the boys have scored in the past three games, including this one, has come on either a bases-loaded walk, a bases-loaded groundout or a sac fly. In those three games, the boys are 0 for 16 with RISP. Production, anyone? Meanwhile, D-Lowe’s health appears to be the least of his concerns, although the Snakes’ four-run fifth got a spark from a bad feed from James Loney to D-Lowe after Loney made a nice stop on a grounder to his right. D-Lowe left after five and now has given up 16 runs in his past 12 innings. Diamondbacks 8, Dodgers 2, middle 7
