Carroll's First-Inning Homer, Gallen's Gem Seal D-backs' 1-0 Win to Sweep Tigers

The 1-0 finish highlighted Arizona's reset to .500 through elite pitching, a timely swing, sharp defense.

Overview

  • Arizona completed a three-game sweep with a 1-0 win at Chase Field on Wednesday, pulling back to .500 after an 0-3 start.
  • Corbin Carroll supplied the only run with a first-inning solo home run off left-hander Tarik Skubal.
  • Zac Gallen delivered six scoreless innings on four hits with no walks and two strikeouts while mixing a four-seamer, knuckle-curve, and slider.
  • Detroit's best chance ended in the sixth when rookie first baseman Jose Fernandez snagged Gleyber Torres' liner and doubled off Kevin McGonigle at third.
  • The bullpen closed the shutout, pointing to early gains in run prevention that could steady Arizona following a rough opening series.
