Last night, we clinched the season series against the Giants. It was the first time we have won the season series against them since 2008. SF leads the alltime series 178-135. Today is former Dback Andrew Good's bday.

Corbin vs Leake

We roughed up Leake for 6 runs at Chase Field earlier in the month, his next start against the Padres at home was much better.

Hard to understand how we can be so successful against the Giants and look like crap against other 500+ teams.
