## Resource

Diamondbacks closer Paul Sewald gave up a three-run home run in the ninth inning as the Diamondbacks lost their series to the Chicago White Sox on Thursday. Is it time for the D-backs to stop using Sewald in non-save situations? Plus, we discuss our takeaways from the series, from Merrill Kelly continuing to struggle after returning to injury to Ildemaro Vargas hitting non-stop home runs to a D-backs pitching staff that has regressed significantly in recent days. We also talk about Nolan Arenado and Geraldo Perdomo turning their seasons around. Finally, we preview the Diamondbacks’ upcoming Mexico City Series against the San Diego Padres.
