Diamondbacks swept by Marlins, as playoff odds take big hit

Miami Marlins

The Arizona Diamondbacks were swept at home in a three-game series by the Miami Marlins. The Diamondbacks (41-42) blew leads going into the eighth inning on both Saturday and Sunday, as their bullpen allowed at least four earned runs in all three games. Miami won Sunday’s finale 6-4 after Diamondbacks pitchers walked 10 batters, the defense committed two errors and the offense recorded no hits from the third inning until the eighth. Starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez provided the bright spot with 5.1 innings and one earned run, but his defense cost him precious pitches that prevented him from getting deeper into the game.
