    Diamondbacks Over Dodgers – Ace Gets Pummeled

    The Arizona Diamondbacks had one of their better moments of a so-so season with a 18-7 win against the Los Angeles Dodgers, as Paul Goldschmidt put in quite a show at the plate with two home runs, although unlike some of his other teammates he wasn’t part of the gang that made Clayton Kershaw look light years away from the best pitcher in baseball he is often referred to as.

    It wasn’t like Ian Kennedy was that bad. He wasn’t superb, like most of 2011, finishing with a 21-4 record and 2.88 ERA. He wasn’t brilliant like his only start against the Milwaukee Brewers this season, shutting them down for 7 innings, allowing only 4 hits. Still, in comparison to the gem thrown by Yovani Gallardo, striking out nine in eight innings, yeah, the playoff opener for the Diamondbacks ace kinda sucked.
