Overview

  • Eugenio Suárez’s four home runs, including a game-tying shot in the ninth, marked the first such feat in MLB since 2017, but Arizona still fell short.
  • The Braves overcame a 6-2 deficit with Eli White’s two-run homer in the seventh and Michael Harris II’s clutch two-run double in the eighth to force extra innings.
  • Matt Olson scored the go-ahead run in the 10th inning on a wild pitch by Arizona reliever Justin Martinez, who had not allowed a run in his previous nine appearances this season.
  • Atlanta’s bullpen held firm in the bottom of the 10th, with Dylan Lee earning his first career save after a replay overturned a safe call at first base.
  • The loss extended the Diamondbacks’ losing streak to four games, overshadowing Suárez’s rare individual achievement.
