00:00In the Arizona Diamondbacks, who had a wonderful October into November last MLB campaign, winning
00:09the National League pennant as a wildcard team, advancing to the World Series, starting
00:13to look the part once again.
00:15The D-backs have now won 10 of their last 12 games with a 7-6 victory in extra innings
00:22last night in the opener of a midweek set against the AL's best team in the Cleveland
00:27Guardians.
00:28In Arizona, 12-4 since the All-Star break, Zach Gallin on the bump yesterday, DRS, in
00:33the land.
00:34Arizona was booked even as a slight road favorite because of it.
00:37Gallin had won three consecutive starts entering last night.
00:42Not great for Arizona, and it was Joc Pederson who continues to stay hot at the plate.
00:47A two-run home run that gave Arizona the lead in the eighth.
00:51Cleveland responds to force extras, Eugenio Suarez an RBI slack fly game winner for Arizona
00:58in extras, again, 7-6 the victory for the Diamondbacks, 12-4 since the All-Star break
01:04for Arizona.
01:05Yeah, a couple of really good RBI chances yesterday that I love were Quetel Marte and
01:09Eugenio Suarez.
01:10And by the way, Marte set the tone for this game, led off with a blast.
01:13They get two runs early.
01:14Okay, they're settling in.
01:15Here come the Cleveland Guardians, bottom of the first inning, tie them up at two.
01:18So you knew a crazy game was in hand.
01:20But if you are going to give Klasse a loss, which doesn't happen all that much, giving
01:25up any runs whatsoever, I don't even care if a runner starts on second base.
01:29That's a pretty good effort, because if you slide down and take a look at what he's done
01:32this season, how about an ERA for Klasse, a .69.
01:37That is absolutely incredible.
01:38Usually when he comes in, I don't care if his base is loaded and nobody out.
01:41He's going to be able to find a way to get out of that inning.
01:43The Diamondbacks are getting hot at the right time.
01:46Can they handle the rest of the month of August and September?
01:49Because if they're playing at this clip, nobody is going to want to see them in the playoffs
01:53here as a wild card team.
