Friday, the Mesa police chief announced two separate outside investigations into the incident.

NOT ENOUGH

This is not even close to being enough. Those animals need to be punished with a huge reduction in pay and possible firings if this is not their first offense. This is not how you support your community. — @al3xtec

BLURRY VISION?

Amazing how these departments suddenly want to have a renewed vision after they destroy public trust in law enforcement. — @WTF_Murica

MESA PD TO BLAME

I hope we as a society give you a wake up call and teach you a lesson. This is beyond words can express. These officers need to lose everything and the Mesa Police Dept. is totally responsible. You are to blame. — @maymaychris

D-backs let series win slip away

On the verge of winning 2 of 3 in San Francisco, Arizona closer Brad Boxberger allowed a two-out, two-run tying homer and the Diamondbacks fell in 10 innings to the Giants on Wednesday.

FANS WANTED

Dreadful performance by the bullpen, yes. But Diamondbacks fans do not travel well. I am convinced I was the only one in AT&T Park. Where are the fans? — @1800Callabro
