Overview
- Ryne Nelson gave Arizona a strong platform by pitching seven innings and allowing two runs, setting up the late decision.
- Pavin Smith hit a tiebreaking solo home run in the seventh inning, his first of the season and his first in nearly a year.
- Geraldo Perdomo followed with an RBI double in the seventh to provide insurance and he reached base three times in the game.
- Paul Sewald recorded his 18th save in 19 chances despite surrendering a two-out ninth-inning homer to Donovan Walton before finishing the game.
- The win on June 15 moves the Diamondbacks above .500 and highlights three trends for Arizona: Nelson’s recent durability at Chase Field, Sewald’s reliable closing role, and Smith’s return to the lineup after elbow surgery.
