Diamondbacks Playoff Push Intensifies | Phoenix News

Arizona’s playoff dreams are alive and kicking as the Diamondbacks claw their way into the final wild card spot with a 69-62 record. With August fading into September, every game is a must-win — especially against the surging Phillies, who trail by just four games and hold the second seed. A pivotal series looms, where Arizona leads the season series 2-1 and could clinch the tiebreaker. Then comes Miami — the team that swept them earlier this year — forcing Arizona to win at least two of three to avoid a brutal tiebreaker loss. And looming over it all? The San Diego Padres, whose late-season showdowns have historically decided playoff fates. With the season series tied, this final stretch could be the ultimate test — one misstep, and Arizona’s postseason hopes vanish.
