Diamondbacks what are you doing?? You just unleashed HBP Adolis for the rest of the series!!!

it's an insanely risky move trying to injure him for the rest of the series there. I admire Sewald's gumption but I don't think it worked.

I don’t know anything about baseball really so why was a guy who hadn’t batted in so long in there at that stage? I guess he was a substitution?

Hedges wasn’t a pinch hitter, he came in after they pinch ran for Heim in the 8th

If you pinch hit for Hedges you have no catcher. Unless Garver can catch but then I think you lose the DH?

when they lose the DH that means they need a different batter for that spot every time, yeah? I never understood how that works
