Diamondbacks News
The Arizona Diamondbacks came up short in a tightly contested series opener against the New York Mets, losing 4-3 after squandering a late lead in extra innings. Despite leading 3-2, the bullpen faltered, allowing the Mets to capitalize in the eighth inning, with Jonathan Loáisiga and Paul Sewald unable to hold the advantage. Adding to the woes, first baseman Carlos Santana was placed on the 10-day injured list with a strained adductor, raising concerns about his availability moving forward. In a bid to fill the gap, Luken Baker has been selected to join the active roster, bringing fresh energy to the lineup. As the D-backs sit at a lukewarm 5-5, with a troubling run differential of -17 over the last week, time will tell if they can right the ship against the Mets again.
