I was bracing for the 2 runHR

I, too, was thinking the worst with that guy up.

Triolo also grounds out. Two down.

Marcano out on a bunt attempt. He’s seen two pitches and has made two outs. Game moving at a brisk pace, in spite of two, mid-inning pitching changes. Still no score, bottom of the 5th.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking right now? I mean, now that the fifth is done, the low pitch count...it's crept in there for me

Keller retires the D’Backs one, two, three. His control has been shaky, and he’s allowed a few base runners, but still no hits through five. Need to get him some runs.

It looked like Marcano slowed down for the last step or 2 and then declared himself safe.

Delay with a lead-off walk. This’ll be our inning.

Does he need a refresher on the rules?
