Despite leading the Orioles 7-1 midway through the sixth inning, the Diamondbacks' bullpen then allowed eight unanswered runs (one inherited from starter Ryne Nelson), ultimately leading to a 9-7 loss.
Should Torey Lovullo have left Ryne Nelson in to finish the sixth inning instead of going to Taylor Rashi? We discuss Lovullo's controversial decision, and how Pete Alonso, Jeremiah Jackson and other Orioles hitters got the best of the D-backs' bullpen.
Plus, we talk positives from the game — including two home runs each from Nolan Arenado and Ketel Marte — and Nelson turning in another solid start. We also discuss the news that Rashi is being sent down to Reno and Brandon Pfaadt is transitioning to the bullpen.
