No, Embarrassing

So much for putting Drew Thorpe in the HOF after two starts. Number two featured eight runs, seven earned, in 3.1 innings of a 12-5 Diamondbacks’ win. But, hey, Andrew Vaughn and Lenyn Sosa must’ve been listening. Vaughn had three hits and three RBIs to push his stats to .234 and 31 while Sosa collected two hits to raise his average to .261. Again, more of the same, please. And maybe somebody can answer me this. Why exactly is Martin Maldonado still on the team? Oh, that’s right, the intangibles he brings. I assume that includes yesterday, when the pitches he called led to twelve runs and the defense he exhibited turned into a catcher’s interference call along with a stolen base. At the plate, Maldonado went 0-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts, leaving him with an .083 BA in 108 at-bats. It's sad, no funny. No, sad.
