Key Moments of the Match

five runs. It all started to unravel for Arizona’s starter, Eduardo Rodríguez, who had a strong start by retiring the first six batters but then allowed the first seven of the third inning to reach base. Ouch! Yelich came through with a bases-loaded single which surely got the fans roaring.

Rodríguez’s night was short-lived, lasting only 2 1/3 innings, marking it as his briefest outing this season. This shift in momentum was palpable and set the stage for the Brewers to build their momentum.

A Diamondbacks’ Comeback

6-0, they scored five runs to level the playing field for a fleeting moment. Ketel Marte and Corbin Carroll delivered back-to-back singles, keeping the rally alive and bringing the crowd to their feet.

Then came Gurriel’s magnificent three-run homer, closing the gap even more and re-igniting hopes for the Diamondbacks. This was an exciting display of skill and determination!

Brewers Seal the Deal

Durbin stepped up big time, adding some insurance with a leadoff home run in the eighth inning. It must have felt great to see that ball fly out of the park.

As the ninth inning rolled around, Abner Uribe wrapped things up by retiring the Diamondbacks in order, earning his third save of the season. What a way to close out an exhilarating game!
