Diamondbacks Edge Rangers 1-0: Soroka's Gem, Sewald's Save

The Diamondbacks' victory was a tightly contested affair, with both teams showcasing strong pitching and defense. Soroka's command on the mound was exceptional, as he efficiently navigated the Rangers' lineup. The Diamondbacks' rotation has now logged seven straight starts of six or more innings, marking their longest such streak since September 2017. On the offensive side, Corbin Carroll and Geraldo Perdomo combined for back-to-back doubles in the first inning, setting the tone for the game. For the Rangers, Jakob Junis started in place of the scratched Nathan Eovaldi, allowing the early doubles but settling down to keep the game close. Despite the loss, the Rangers look to Kumar Rocker to rebound in the series.

Michael Soroka pitched 6 1/3 scoreless innings, allowing only three hits and striking out five.

It was Sewald’s first appearance at Globe Life Park since Game 1 of the 2023 World Series, where he allowed a game-tying home run. This time, he secured the save.

Geraldo Perdomo drove in Corbin Carroll with a double in the first inning.
