Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo talks about his team’s 4-1 loss to the Padres and their 4-6 road trip through San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego.
Daniel Descalso, filling in for Brandon Drury at second base, blasted a three-run homer into the pool area in right field to give the Diamondbacks a 3-0 lead after four innings. Descalso made Chicago starter Miguel Gonzalez pay for a hanging curve ball he left over the middle of the plate.
Meanwhile, Zack Greinke continues to mow down the White Sox, allowing just one hit with no walks through the first four innings.
Leury Garcia hit a solo homer to right field in the top of the fifth to cut into the Diamondbacks’ lead.
Pitcher’s duel
Arizona’s Zack Greinke and Chicago’s Miguel Gonzalez were locked in a scoreless pitcher’s duel through three innings. Each pitcher had allowed just one hit.
Greinke already had five strikeouts through the first three frames while throwing just 36 pitches.
Delgado to fill in for Walker
Manager Torey Lovullo said Randall Delgado will start Wednesday in place of starter Taijuan Walker, who has been placed on the 10-day disabled list (finger blister).
Lovullo said the Diamondbacks felt it was best to make Wednesday’s game a “bullpen game” rather than call up a starter from the minor leagues. He said Delgado, who is 1-0 with a 4.05 ERA, was picked to start because he has been stretched out in the bullpen and could give Arizona multiple innings. He said Delgado won’t be on a pitch count.
“We felt like he was going to be the most prepared guy for that moment,” Lovullo said. “He’s had some extended outings and he’s been throwing the ball very, very well.”
Lovullo said no decision has been made as to who will get the ball for Walker’s second scheduled start.
Pollock’s return uncertain
Center fielder A.J. Pollock, on the 10-day disabled list since May 15 with a strained right groin, is feeling better and has done some light running but Lovullo didn’t make it sound as if Pollock will be ready to be activated later this week.
“The next steps are to get him with a bat in his hand and take some batting practice,” Lovullo said. “Everything is progressing very well. Is it going to happen on the 11th day that he steps in and plays a game? At this point I’m not sure. We want A.J. back as soon as possible but we’re not going to do it before it’s the right time.”
Milk men
Relievers Archie Bradley, J.J. Hoover and Andrew Chafin will compete in a cow-milking competition Tuesday before batting practice to kick off the Grand Slam Milk Drive program.
Lovullo was asked who he thought would win the contest and he actually took several seconds to think about it.
“Hoover,” he finally said. “Because he has a farm and I know he has several cows. He’s a cow owner which doesn’t necessarily mean he’s going to know how to milk the cows but I feel like knowing J.J., I feel very strongly that he and his wife know how to do that.”
Asked how many gallons he believes Hoover could get from the cow, Lovullo smiled and said, “Oh my God, I don’t know. You talk about gallons and I think about filling up gas tanks.”
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Jake Lamb was named the National League Player of the Week for the period ending May 21st.
Lamb batted .412 (7-for-17) with seven runs scored, a double, four home runs and 10 RBI over five games to claim his second career NL Player of the Week Award, last winning on July 17, 2016.
“He earned that because of a lot of the hard work he’s put in,” Lovullo said. “He earned that because he had a very good offensive and defensive week. When you’re recognized by the league you’re doing something special.”
Lamb, as expected, didn’t treat the award as any sort of big deal.
“It’s cool,” he said. “I’ve been working hard to get the bat going again. That’s kind of really all it says. I don’t really think anything of it.”
Pitchers: Diamondbacks RHP Zack Greinke (5-2, 3.09) vs. White Sox RHP Miguel Gonzalez (3-4, 4.29).
TV/Radio: FSAZ/KMVP-FM (98.7), KHOV-FM (105.1).
Greinke gave up four runs in 6 2/3 innings against the Mets last week at Chase Field, winning for the third consecutive start. … Greinke is holding righties (.227) and lefties (.226) to low batting averages, something he attributes to the effectiveness of his slider and change-up, respectively. … He has a career 4.14 ERA against the White Sox but he hasn’t faced them since 2012. … Gonzalez has been an innings-eater so far for the White Sox, averaging more than six innings per start through eight outings. … He hasn’t pitched effectively, however, in his past four starts, posting a 6.94 ERA. … Gonzalez’s fastball sits in the low-90s, and he throws a slider, curveball and splitter.
Tuesday: At Chase Field, 6:40 p.m., Diamondbacks LHP Patrick Corbin (3-4, 4.38) vs. White Sox RHP Dylan Covey (0-3, 7.64).

Up next
Chicago White Sox
White Sox update: The White Sox got off to a good start, winning 13 of their first 22 games, but they’ve struggled since, going 6-13 in their past 19 games entering Sunday. They have several players swinging the bat well in the early going, led by RF Avisail Garcia, who is hitting .357/.400/.610 in 165 plate appearances with nine doubles, three triples and eight homers. Highly regarded for years as a prospect, this is the first time Garcia, 25, has produced at this kind of level in his career. CF Leury Garcia is hitting .298 with a .812 OPS; 1B Jose Abreu is hitting .274 with a .490 slugging; and 2B Yolmer Sanchez has a .333 average and .375 on-base. The White Sox bullpen has been terrific, with a 2.70 ERA that ranks second-best in the American League. RHP David Robertson (2.81 ERA, five saves), RHP Anthony Swarzak (1.37 ERA) and RHP Tommy Kahnle (1.69 ERA) are among the White Sox relievers pitching well so far.
