Not flashy, but the math works. 6-1 in the last 7. Hard to complain about that. Working against that, losing by 3 last night pulls things in the wrong direction.

Diamondbacks News

The Arizona Diamondbacks find themselves on the brink of postseason elimination after a disappointing 10-7 loss to the San Diego Padres that snapped their six-game winning streak. With one game remaining in the regular season, the D-backs’ playoff hopes hinge on a win and a bit of help from other teams, particularly the faltering Phillies. Despite last night’s setback, Arizona had shown remarkable resilience, winning six straight prior to that, allowing them to stay in the hunt for the last NL Wild Card spot. The team’s recent surge was further amplified by the Phillies’ collapse against the Rays, making this final day of the season nothing short of a make-or-break scenario. With roster moves and a tightening wild-card race, the Diamondbacks are set for an intense conclusion to a rollercoaster season.
