In a decisive victory on Tuesday night, the Arizona Diamondbacks secured a 10-4 win against the Miami Marlins, bolstered by an impressive performance from Corbin Carroll. The young outfielder launched a grand slam, contributing significantly to the team’s fifth win in their last six games.

Key Contributions

Carroll not only smashed a grand slam in the sixth inning but also drove in five runs during the game. His all-around effort included an RBI double earlier in the night, enhancing his hitting streak to eight games, during which he has achieved three home runs.

Additionally, Geraldo Perdomo and Josh Naylor also made significant impacts. Perdomo connected for his third home run of the season, a three-run blast in the second inning, while Naylor added a solo home run in the third inning.

Pitching Highlights

Merrill Kelly led Arizona’s pitching efforts, striking out nine over six solid innings to improve his record to 3-1 for the season. Meanwhile, Marlins’ starter Connor Gillispie struggled, allowing eight runs on eight hits in just five innings, which resulted in his record slipping to 0-2.

Turning Point of the Game

One of the pivotal moments came in the second inning when Arizona scored four runs after Gillispie had retired the first two batters. Alec Thomas’ single and a walk to Garrett Hampson set up Carroll’s clutch double, igniting the scoring for the Diamondbacks.
