Misplay Costs D’backs Game

by @ 7:28 pm. Filed under 2008 Diamondbacks

The Diamondbacks were sitting in a 2-2 tie game in the top of the ninth with Chad Qualls on the mound. The Mets offense had been kept quiet all day, but a Conor Jackson error opened the door in the ninth and the Mets capitalized, scoring three runs in the frame to win 5-2. A groundball hit to Jackson by Carlos Delgado seemed to be a sure double play, but Jackson airmailed the throw into left field allowing Carlos Beltran to score the go ahead run.

Dan Haren had a very strong outing. He struck out seven in six innings allowing only three hits and just two earned runs. He also only walked one. Johan Santana was up the to challenge for the Mets. He allowed six hits in six innings, and only one run. He walked four however, opposed to his eight K’s.

Chris Snyder had a double and triple in the game driving in one run. Augie Ojeda came back with two hits the day after driving in six runs. Mark Reynolds also had two hits.

David Wright blasted his sixth homer of the year for the Mets.

The Diamondbacks open a set with the Phillies tomorrow. Max Scherzer will make his first career start against the veteran lefty Jamie Moyer.
