What an electrifying game, D-Backs fans! From the very first inning to the nail-biting finish, our Arizona Diamondbacks showed relentless determination to clinch that 7-6 win over the Cleveland Guardians. 🌵⚾

Early Fireworks 💥

It was a hot start for us as Ketel Marte and Gabriel Moreno launched back-to-back homers in the top of the 1st inning to give us an early 2-0 lead. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. and Randal Grichuk also contributed with singles, though we couldn't extend the lead further in that inning.

Guardians’ Quick Response 🥵

The Guardians didn't stay quiet for long, though. They tied it up by the end of the 1st inning with runs from Jose Ramirez and Josh Naylor. By the end of the 2nd inning, they even took the lead, making it 3-2.

A See-Saw Battle ⚖️

Eugenio Suárez and Jake McCarthy helped us regain the lead in the top of the 6th inning, making it 4-3. But Cleveland struck back with two runs in the bottom of the same inning to make it 5-4. This game was truly a rollercoaster ride! 🎢

Clutch Performances 🏆

In the 8th inning, pinch hitter Joc Pederson came up big with a two-run homer to push us ahead 6-5. Guardians tied it up again in the 9th, but our bullpen held strong.

Extra-Inning Drama! 😲

Heading into the 10th inning, Corbin Carroll got to third, setting up Suárez for a sacrifice fly to bring him home, giving us the crucial lead. Hats off to Justin Martinez for sealing the deal in the bottom of the 10th by striking out key Guardians batters. 👏
