The game began with both teams displaying strong defensive plays. The D-Backs were unable to register any hits, while their pitching staff effectively kept the Bucs from gaining any momentum. The first inning set the tone for what would be a tightly contested match.


Fifth Inning


By the fifth inning, Arizona's offense started showing signs of life with two hits recorded. However, they couldn't convert these opportunities into runs due to Pittsburgh's resilient defense. Meanwhile, Diamondbacks' pitchers continued their dominance by preventing any hits from reaching home plate.


Seventh Inning


In an attempt to break through Pittsburgh's defenses, Arizona managed another two hits in the seventh inning but still failed to score. The Snakes' pitching remained steadfast as they maintained pressure on the Buccos' batters and kept them hitless throughout this period.


Eleventh Inning


The eleventh inning proved decisive for Arizona as they finally broke through Pittsburgh’s defenses and scored one crucial run without registering additional hits. This lone run was enough to secure victory thanks to stellar pitching that held off any potential Pirate comeback attempts.
