Decisive Moment
A 400-foot home run by Bauers in the seventh inning proved to be the difference maker in a tightly contested matchup at Chase Field. The blast, which traveled deep to right center, carried two runs across the plate and shifted the momentum entirely in Milwaukee's favor. Before that moment, the game had been a defensive struggle, but the long ball opened the scoring for the visiting Brewers and set the stage for a late-inning rally.
Game Progression
Arizona took an early lead in the top of the first inning when Carroll doubled to right field, allowing Perdomo to score from first base. The Diamondbacks held that 1-0 advantage for the majority of the contest, relying on a strong pitching performance to keep Milwaukee off the board. Eduardo Rodriguez worked six innings for Arizona, allowing five hits and two earned runs while striking out three batters. He took the loss, dropping his record to 7-3.
The tie occurred in the bottom of the seventh when Bauers launched his homer, giving Milwaukee a 2-1 lead. The Brewers added an insurance run later in the same frame when Ortiz singled to right, driving in Sánchez to make it 3-1. Arizona managed to score one more run in the seventh on a fielder's choice to shortstop by Moreno, which allowed Troy to cross the plate while Carroll was thrown out at second. The final score stood at 3-2.
