Nick Ahmed hit a two-run homer in the second inning, Lourdes Gurriel followed with a three-run blast in the fifth and the NL West-leading Diamondbacks beat the slumping Detroit Tigers 5-0 Saturday.
"We have the right pieces," Lovullo said. "We have really good players on this team. Am I surprised? No.""We have a lot of talent in this room, and guys that are hungry," Ahmed said.
Ryne Nelson threw 5 2/3 scoreless innings. After walking two straight to load the bases, Nelson was replaced by right-hander Austin Adams, who ended the sixth by getting Zack Short out on a fly to center. "There was a thought there that he was going to touch the seventh inning," Lovullo said. "That's how well he was throwing."

More importantly, you'll come to view being in the right place at the right time not as a diminishing ding on an especially good or surprising team but as an almost necessary drop of the sublime that makes the whole thing feel meant to be.
