1.   Arizona MVP candidate Matt Williams missed the last three innings, pulled in a pitching change.

2.   Ayala stalked off the mound, apparently not enthralled with the pitching change.

3.   Backup catcher Rick Wilkins is a left-handed hitter, and late-inning pitching changes would have required Wilson to pinch-hit or play.

5.   After a pitching change, Chad Curtis came within a foot or so of hitting a home run, settling for a double.

6.   After yet another pitching change, Jay Buhner walked, setting the stage for Segui.

7.   But it got long, and with a lot of situations that were going on out there, I just decided I was going to make a pitching change.

8.   But then came Lance Johnson and a pitching change.

9.   Cox made another pitching change, turning to Kevin McGlinchy to face Daryle Ward.
