Diamondbacks News

The Arizona Diamondbacks edged out the Philadelphia Phillies 5-4, showcasing a classic case of resilience after Michael Soroka stumbled early, giving up four runs in the first inning. Despite the rocky beginning, Soroka bounced back to finish with 10 strikeouts, matching a Hall of Famer's feat, demonstrating his potential to rebound under pressure. However, the victory came with a cloud, as catcher Gabriel Moreno left the game with lower back tightness and is now considered day-to-day. The win improves the D-backs to 8-6 and adds a much-needed boost to an inconsistent week, yet they need to find a way to reduce those explosive innings that have haunted them in past seasons. As they look ahead, the team must hope for a quick recovery for Moreno to maintain their offensive momentum.

Diamondbacks 5, Phillies 4: Battle of the Blow Up Innings
Game Summary The Diamondbacks starting rotation has had a habit of being sunk by the “Blow Up Inning” over the last couple seasons, and after the first inning tonight, I thought Soroka was just another member of the club. In a rare twist on that tired trope, the Diamondbacks offense punched through with their own […]

Brewers Sign Reiss Knehr to Minor League Deal
The Brewers signed right-handed pitcher Reiss Knehr to a minor league deal yesterday, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com. He has been assigned to the Arizona Complex League (ACL) Brewers squad, likely in an effort to build up following an injury-shortened (yet still effective) showing at Triple-A El Paso in 2025. He would presumably […]
