Diamondbacks starter Rubby De La Rosa has been getting knocked around lately, but had not taken a real pounding since early June. That pounding came Saturday night, courtesy of the visiting Dodgers.
De La Rosa gave up six runs on nine hits in just two innings. He only had time to strike out one.
Los Angeles wasted no time wasting his time. Carl Crawford led off the game with a home run, then four straight hits in the third, including an Adrian Gonzalez blast, sent him to the showers.
De La Rosa still boasts a strong 12-8 record despite a lofty 4.75 ERA that is at its highest point since July 20.
