DBacks GM Mike Hazen on Corbin Burnes: "He came out of his side yesterday and said, ‘It's not coming out velocity-wise, not pain, but it's not coming out. I don't feel like I'm putting myself or the team in a great situation to keep going.’"

Per @Dbacks mgr Torey Lovullo Gabriel Moreno left the game with a tender left hamstring. Expects him to be in lineup as DH tomorrow. Will call up a catcher to have another backup just in case. Jesus Sanchez designated for assignment to make room.

"I’m excited to be on this side of it." #Padres notes: Walker Buehler celebrated a lot at Dodger Stadium over the years. He relished doing so as a visitor knowing his success had a lot to do with his new employer's. Buehler makes 32nd start Saturday. sandiegouniontribune.com/202…
