Dodgers 8, Diamondbacks 7: The Diamondbacks Have Been Eaten By A Grue
The Diamondbacks... well. It was bad. Very bad. Have some Zork nostalgia while reliving the loss of the year so far.

The Dodgers have been without Matt Kemp for now nine games, but they have had just about everyone on the roster fill in for the hamstrung superstar. Ivan De Jesus, who earlier drove in the tying run, hit a booming two-run double with two out in the ninth inning to give the Dodgers an 8-7 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks to extend their winning streak to six, matching their longest of the season.
In the seventh inning of Monday night's 6-1 win by the Dodgers over the Arizona Diamondbacks, Andre Ethier hit a solo home run that at the time gave the Dodgers a 3-1 lead. It was nearly a one-handed, one-legged swing, perhaps an homage to current Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson and his October heroics 24 years ago.
