Sharp single to right by Owings to start the 2nd
Corbin, bunts foul behind him, swings away and fouls left, then shows bunt pulls it back and takes called strike 3. Trying to get cute and accomplishes nothing.
grounds 4-6-3 close on both ends. Segura DP
going to last of 2
2-1 AZ

I'd like to think that the presence of Gyorko works in our favor. Don't know what the Cards see in him.
But they're swinging hot bats tonight already. Showing how to put a nice swing on it and find holes

Hazelbaker lines to Segura making a leaping catch 1 out
Tejada grounds to Lamb to his left and can't hold it, deflects away from Owings in the hole
didn't quite get the glove down on it to hold it
Martinez strikes out swinging on the backfoot slider 2 out
Tejada got a single
Carpenter swing and a miss on the low outside slider
2-1 AZ after 2

Bourn strikes out looking 1 out - maybe a reason he's hitting .143
and batting 2nd!
dying quail left center, Holliday can't quite get there, single for Goldy
Fortunately Holliday took the first step back which usually messes it up
and Lamb hits into his second DP, 4-6-3
going to last of 3
2-1 AZ

Diaz swing and a miss in the dirt 1 out
Holliday pops to Segura, busted him inside, busted his stick, easy pop up 2 out
Piscotty walks on a 3-2
Yadi stands there and watches Piscotty get thrown out stealing
