Cody Ross confuses the count on walk
Video: Take your base dude!
Padres 2, Diamondbacks 1

Arizona's Gerardo Parra doubled opening the game and scored on Cody Ross' sacrifice fly. Stults didn't give up another hit until...

The Diamondbacks continued their success in extra inning games and with Patrick Corbin on the mound as they were able to hold on for a 8-6 victory in 12 innings over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday night.
Like they did the night before, Arizona was able to get out to an early with a three-run fourth. Martin...

Ian Kennedy Crossed Line in Dodgers-Diamondbacks Brawl, Acted Recklessly With Attempted Beanball
The most common complaint about the occasional bench-clearing brawl is that it exposes players to potential injuries. But as much as pushing, shoving, punching, kicking, biting or whatever can harm players, nothing is as dangerous or as bush league as a pitch intentionally thrown at someone’s head.
The mere idea of a hard baseball traveling 90-plus mph toward a human body should...
Dodgers and DBacks brawl after pointless plunkings
Tuesday night, we got another dose of stupid, dangerous behavior from grown men who should know better. In the top of the fifth inning, Zack Greinke hit Cody Ross, and things increasingly spun out of control from there. In the bottom of the sixth, recent call up and phenom Yasiel Puig was hit in the face by Ian Kennedy. I’m not sure if it was intentional, and since hitting someone...
MLB 2013: Diamondbacks Have Best Defensive Outfield
When you think of the best defensive outfield, you consider trios from the Anaheim Angels, Milwaukee Brewers or even the Atlanta Braves. All great outfield groups, but no one is playing better defense right now that the Arizona Diamondbacks outfield of Gerardo Parra, A.J. Pollock, and Cody Ross.
The Diamondbacks are leading the NL West with strong pitching and great hitting. One...
Diamondbacks coach Trammell ejected
Arizona Diamondbacks bench coach Alan Trammell was ejected in the sixth inning of a game against the St. Louis Cardinals for arguing from the dugout on Tuesday night.
Trammell was ejected during a pitching change by third-base umpire Jordan Baker.
Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson came out to argue earlier in the inning after Cardinals outfielder Carlos Beltran was ruled safe when...
D-backs' Ross sees humor in homer against Rangers
PHOENIX -- Cody Ross could not help but chuckle.
The Rangers wooed Ross, bought him dinner and were on the verge of signing him to a free-agent contract over the winter before the Diamondbacks swooped in with their three-year, 26 million deal. Ross and his wife were in a car with Rangers GM Jon Daniels when the D-backs texted their interest.
So how has he repaid them? With a home...
D-backs done in by Padres' Petco change
SAN DIEGO -- Eleven feet. It might as well have been a mile.
Yonder Alonsos fly ball to deep right-center field Friday would have struck the auxiliary scoreboard and bounded back into play in every game at Petco Park in every year from 2004-12.
After renovations, the ball easily cleared the new fence in front of the Jack Daniels party patio for a two-run home run, a blow that seemed...
Blackhawks Had ‘Tremendous Amount of Sex’ This Year, CSN Chicago’s Susannah Collins Says On Air (Video)
Freudian slip? No joke. CSN Chicago’s Susannah Collins had the most unfortunate of on-screen slipups Tuesday night while reporting about the Blackhawks. Collins, channeling the fervor of the Stanley Cup playoffs beginning, jumped into her inside scoop on the hometown team — and then uttered a phrase that hockey fans likely found far more interesting. Collins was trying to explain...
Clutch D-backs comfortable being uncomfortable
PHOENIX -- Their gray warmup T-shirts read Get comfortable being uncomfortable, and the Diamondbacks wear them well.
Here they are, within a game of first place in the NL West after Cody Ross sacrifice fly drove in the winning run in a 3-2, 10-inning victory over the Rockies on Saturday, while overcoming a rash of injuries, an occasionally shaky bullpen and just one total victory...
Diamondbacks 3, Rockies 2(10)
Cody Ross' sacrifice fly to center field drove in A.J. Pollock with the winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning Saturday night, lifting the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 3-2 win over the Colorado Rockies.
Pollock led off the inning with a single off Edgmer Escalona (1-1).
With one out, he stole second base and went to third on a throwing error by Rockies catcher Wilin Rosario...

The schedule: Issues and more issues
Most of the early talk about the baseball schedule concerns the unfortunate April weather – snow in Colorado and Minnesota, cold in the Northeast and Midwest.
Two Diamondbacks veterans, outfielder Cody Ross and third baseman Eric Chavez, pointed out another issue last week in comments to Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic:
Night games on getaway days.

D-backs put Kubel on DL, activate Ross
PHOENIX -- The Diamondbacks have relied heavily on their outfield depth so far this season, and they did so again Saturday when Jason Kubel was forced onto the disabled list with a strained left quadriceps.
Cody Ross was activated to replace Kubel in time for the game against the Dodgers on Saturday after an MRI earlier in the day showed the strain. Kubel first felt the injury when...
Pollock, Marte giving D-backs tough decision
PHOENIX -- In about a week, or whenever Cody Ross returns from the disabled list, the Diamondbacks likely will be forced to return either A.J. Pollock or Alfredo Marte to the minor leagues. It is the curse of the young and optionable on a deep, veteran team.
On Wednesday, they belonged in an All-Star setting, as both rookies had career games.
Pollock had his first three-hit game...
Diamondbacks may get Cody Ross back Friday
Cody Ross has been on the disabled list since the start of the season. He was one of many players on the Arizona Diamondbacks' roster to start the season injured. Fortunately, it seems Ross is closing in on making his return. In fact, he may even make his season debut this week.
According to Nick Piercoro of the Arizona Republic, Ross could return to the lineup as early...

Gibson confirms probability of Ross on DL
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Though Cody Ross took a step in his rehab of a calf injury Tuesday, the Diamondbacks outfielder will likely open the season on the disabled list, D-backs manager Kirk Gibson confirmed.
"I'd rather (do that) than him push it and injure himself for six to eight weeks," Gibson said. "Let's get it right. If we have to DL him to do that, then...
