Brandon McCarthy surrendered six runs -- four earned -- in 6 2/3 innings Tuesday in a loss to the Pirates.
Five of the runs came in the fourth, an inning that started on a Jason Kubel error. Obviously, McCarthy's Diamondbacks tenure hasn't opened as hoped -- he's 0-1 with a 7.71 ERA -- but there's no reason to be down on him yet.
