Diamondbacks' Efforts Fall Short


The Snakes started strong by scoring three runs in the first inning and continued to add pressure throughout the game. Their fifth inning was particularly productive, adding four runs to their tally. However, despite matching hits with Los Angeles at 11 apiece and Ketel Marte's solid performance as one of their key players, they couldn't withstand Dodger's final push.


Arizona's pitching struggled against L.A.'s relentless offense; however, they managed to keep things competitive until those decisive final moments.
