Diamondbacks savor the ‘magical moment’ of their 7-run rally in the 9th to stun Braves

June 5, 2025

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo says his team had a “magical moment” when Eugenio Suárez hit a go-ahead, two-run double to complete a seven-run, ninth-inning rally against the Atlanta Braves. Arizona entered the inning trailing 10-4 and ESPN said Atlanta had a 99.9% win probability. The Diamondbacks won 11-10. Lovullo says he felt like a proud dad watching a bunch of Little Leaguers play. The Diamondbacks scored three runs against Scott Blewett and four more against struggling Braves closer Raisel Iglesias. Arizona has won four straight to get to .500 at 31-31.

June 5, 2025

Eugenio Suárez hit a go-ahead, two-run double off Raisel Iglesias to cap a seven-run ninth inning, and the Arizona Diamondbacks stunned the Atlanta Braves 11-10 to sweep a three-game series. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit a one-out homer in the ninth and Alek Thomas followed with a two-run shot, both off Scott Blewett, to get the Diamondbacks within 10-7. After Blewett walked the next batter, the Braves brought in closer Iglesias, who allowed hits to four of the next five to blow a save for the fourth time this season.
