D-backs Slugging and Pitching Propel Them to 8-4 Win
“I think if you can get to it, obviously at least five is good. I think six is solid. I think that way, at least for the first game. Torey’s not going to try to overextend us to 110 pitches on opening day or first week. I think just having the body acclimated to getting maybe that sixth up. Five is solid. April is still kind of a build-up too. You’re getting into mid-season form at that point,” Gallen shared.

Josh Naylor’s Diamondbacks impression: ‘The focus is through the roof’
“Not a lot of players on this team when it comes to like being flashy in a way, it’s more to the grind and play hard, practice hard and let the results speak for themselves,” Naylor told Arizona Sports on Friday. There’s a lot of fun that goes into it also. A lot of hard work, a lot of intent. The focus is through the roof. Again, it’s not just everyone’s serious and doing the work, everyone’s having fun but also intentional in every little detail of the defense, cage work, (batting practice). There’s intent behind everything, which is super awesome.”

No. 1 prospect Lawlar establishing himself on and off the field
“It’s a blessing,” Lawlar said. “I learned a lot from it — perseverance, and I know my body even more now [since] I spent a lot of time on the [training] table. Obviously I want to be out there with the guys and be with the fellas, but a lot of good can come out of something like that sometimes.”

The only English word that ends with ‘mt’ is Dreamt.
This is yet another example of idiosyncrasies in the English language.
The world’s largest pyramid cannot be found in Egypt.
The Great Pyramid of Cholula is found in Cholula, Puebla, Mexico and holds the record for the largest pyramid in the world. This structure is four times as big as the Great Pyramid of Giza.
Justin’s fact: Sudan has the most pyramids with 220+, Egypt “only” has 118.
