Overview
- Zac Gallen delivered a dominant seven-inning performance, allowing just one run on two hits and striking out six to guide the Diamondbacks to a 5-1 win over the Mets.
- This marks Gallen's second strong outing against the Mets in less than a week, following a six-inning, one-run performance in a 4-2 win at Citi Field on April 29.
- Shelby Miller, emerging as Arizona's closer, shut down a ninth-inning threat by retiring Brandon Nimmo and Mark Vientos with runners on base.
- Gurriel Jr. provided key offensive support with a two-run homer, while Josh Naylor contributed two RBIs and scored twice.
- The Diamondbacks now lead the series and are one win away from securing consecutive series victories over the Mets, with Merrill Kelly set to face Kodai Senga in the next game.
