I understand why Garcia is hitting second, but I also don't understand it.

Put Peterson or Swanson there!
 
For those still wanting the #1 pick, it'd be best for Atlanta to lose at least once more in the series as to not gain ground on the next closest team (besides Minny).
 
I'm only allowed the Diamondbacks feed for these games. As such, I just ate some poison—so please tell me if Joe Simpson says anything that might induce vomiting.
 
He basically screwed Inciarte. Inciarte was forced to swing at a bad pitch outside because he couldn't take the chance that it would be called a strike.

I'm not a big fan of strike zone whining but Vanover's screwed Freddy and Inciarte while calling a couple of balls on Goldschmidt that were in the middle of the strike zone so badly that I'm amazed he didn't hit either of them about 450 feet.
 
This is beyond painful but you'd think we'd be used to the endless stream of absolute garbage this year.
