The D-Backs did manage to get three hits but were unable to convert them into runs.

Second Inning

The second inning was pivotal for the Rox as they came alive with three runs on three hits. This offensive burst was led by Ezequiel Tovar and Kyle Farmer, who contributed significantly with their batting prowess. Tovar's consistent performance has been a bright spot for Colorado this season.

Fifth Inning

The fifth inning saw another surge from Arizona as they added two more runs to their tally through strategic hitting and capitalizing on opportunities presented by Colorado's pitching errors.

Sixth Inning

Colorado managed to add one more run in the sixth inning thanks to Brenton Doyle's efforts at bat. However, this was countered by strong defensive plays from Arizona that kept further damage at bay.

Ninth Inning

As tensions rose in the ninth inning, both teams fought hard but it was Arizona who sealed their win with an additional run scored late in their final turn at bat. Despite a valiant effort from Colorado's bullpen which included Juan Mejia maintaining an impressive ERA of 0.0 during his stint on field – it wasn't enough to overcome Arizona’s lead.
