The Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Colorado Rockies 5-3 on Wednesday, using an early scoring burst to keep their National League wild-card hopes alive. Corbin Carroll delivers a key two-run triple to cap a four-run first inning, helping Arizona build separation that it maintains through the game.
Arizona’s offense is led by Gabriel Moreno, who drives in a run and finishes with three hits. The win brings the Diamondbacks’ record to 84-74 and places them within three games of the Phillies and Cubs for the NL’s wild-card positions, with only four games remaining in the regular season. One outlet also notes Moreno’s batting form, including his .310 average and his standing behind Luis Arraez for the NL batting title, as the race continues late in the season.
Across the available reports, the main focus remains the same: Arizona’s 5-3 win, Carroll’s two-run triple in the first inning, and Moreno’s multi-hit performance that helps tighten the playoff picture.
