For a good 24 wild-card hours, starters had climbed pitchers' mounds as the chosen ones, those tasked with lifting their clubs from the regular season into the division series, and what followed was not tidiness, not gallantry, not brilliance, but chaos. In an elimination game Wednesday night at Chase Field, after having pitched Zack Greinke and turning in desperation to fellow starter Robbie Ray, and then briefly pulling away on a two-run, seventh-inning triple by Archie Bradley – the first postseason triple ever by a relief pitcher, the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Colorado Rockies, 11-8, to advance to the National League division series. The Diamondbacks won 11 of 19 games against the Dodgers.
