Prior to Monday’s series opener against the San Diego Padres at Chase Field, Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo talked at length about wanting to see his hitters be more patient at the plate.
Lovullo seemed to suggest that, given the offensive funk in which the Diamondbacks have found themselves, some hitters have been practicing bad habits at the dish and swinging at the wrong pitches.
Whatever the case may be, the Diamondbacks seem to be losing even more patience when it comes to their run-scoring woes.
BOX SCORE: Padres 6, Diamondbacks 2
