Diamondbacks Crush A's with 15 Runs | Sacramento News

The Diamondbacks obliterated the Athletics 15-5, smashing a season-high run total and celebrating two key milestones: James McCann’s 100th career homer and Ryan Waldschmidt’s first big league blast. A five-run fifth inning, ignited by Gabriel Moreno’s two-run shot, was capped by back-to-back homers from McCann and Waldschmidt, with Corbin Carroll and Nolan Arenado also going deep. Merrill Kelly earned the win with five strong innings, while Gage Jump struggled in a loss. The A’s are in freefall, losing 17 of their last 20 games, while Arizona heads on a long road trip after a solid 4-2 homestand. Up next: Diamondbacks vs. Cardinals, with Brandon Pfaadt on the mound.
