This road trip was supposed to be the Diamondbacks’ last, best chance to take care of business, to beat up on the bad teams their schedule had graciously lined up for them, to fatten up for the lean days ahead. It is not off to a good start.
A night after getting shut out, the Diamondbacks watched an eighth-inning lead disappear as the Cincinnati Reds rallied for three runs off reliever Archie Bradley to come away with a 6-3 win at Great American Ball Park on Saturday night.
It apparently was a loss so emotionally charged that Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo felt the need to call a team meeting in the visitors’ clubhouse after the game, though he initially denied that such a meeting occurred.
BOX SCORE: Reds 6, Diamondbacks 3
