First Inning


The game began with both teams struggling to make an impact offensively. The Diamondbacks managed just one hit in their first inning, unable to capitalize on any scoring opportunities. Meanwhile, the Tigers also failed to score despite securing two hits.


Fourth Inning


In a promising turn of events for Arizona, Ketel Marte's performance stood out as he contributed significantly with a hit that led to their first run of the game during this inning. However, this was countered by Detroit's steady defense and pitching that kept further runs at bay.


Fifth Inning


The fifth inning proved pivotal as Detroit surged ahead with three runs on two hits and took advantage of two errors committed by Arizona’s defense. This offensive burst put pressure on the D-Backs' bullpen and shifted momentum firmly in favor of the Tigs.


Sixth Inning


Detroit continued its dominance into the sixth inning by adding another three runs from four hits. The Snakes’ pitching struggled during this period as they allowed multiple base runners which ultimately widened Detroit's lead significantly.


Ninth Inning


Despite trailing throughout most of the game, Arizona showed resilience in their final attempt at bat when they scored one more run thanks to Geraldo Perdomo’s impressive hitting display—his average standing out from previous performances—but it wasn't enough against Detroit’s solid closing efforts.


Overall analysis indicates that while there were moments where individual players like Perdomo shone brightly for Arizona—achieving an OPS (On-base Plus Slugging) rate above 2—the collective team effort fell short due largely due defensive lapses coupled with inconsistent pitching across innings leading up till endgame scenario where hopes dwindled rapidly under mounting scoreboard pressure imposed early onwards via relentless Tiger offense execution strategy employed effectively throughout match duration itself!
