The D-backs are 1-4 against the Dodgers this season, but three of the four losses have been by one run.

Arizona's 22 one-run games in total is tied for most in the majors. They're 11-11 in those, so not particularly good or bad.

Some narratives don't die easily.

Remember when Clarke got lit up on Opening Day?

Since then, 24.2 IP, just one​ earned run. 0.36 ERA.

In May, the D-backs went 11-2 against the Rockies & Giants, but 4-11 against everyone else.

@azsportsguy1 @dbacksprospectz The problem for Detroit is, if they DON'T trade him, then he walks and they get nothing at all in return.

@OnDeckJeff @dbacksprospectz Which is why they won't get him.

Updated standings:

From what I can see, the last time the D-backs had the fourth-best record in the NL* was Sep 11, 2024, at 82-64.

* = after a meaningful number of games, obvs

[AZ SnakePit @AZSnakepit]

Padres lose. The D-backs are now tied with San Diego for the first wild-card spot.

Only 107 games left. 😉

@Coopernewman333 Gonzo pre-dates Statcast. But this is not a terribly difficult bit of trivia once you keep that in mind.

[AZ SnakePit @AZSnakepit]

That was the second-longest HR by a D-back in San Francisco in the StatCast era.

No prizes for guessing who had the longest one...

D-backs are six games over .500 for the first time since the end of the 2024 campaign. Never got there last year.

Throwback to a previous time a D-backs runner overtook the man ahead of him.

@Stu_Pidazzle68 Might want to look at the standings on this date last year, see how many of the top teama eventually made the post season...
