Diamondbacks News
The Diamondbacks suffered a frustrating setback last night, falling 3-2 to the Rockies after a promising start that saw Corbin Carroll and Ketel Marte hit back-to-back homers in the first inning. It’s a bitter pill to swallow, especially as the team has been fighting hard for playoff positioning with a record of 64-56. Despite the early offensive spark, the D-backs were stifled by Japanese pitcher Sugano and the Rockies' bullpen, unable to score after the first frame. With their run differential still sitting at +8 over the last week, there’s reason to believe they can bounce back, but consistency is key as they look to even the series against Colorado. If they don't get back to winning ways quickly, the playoff race could become even tighter.
