Diamondbacks’ Wild Card Race in Jeopardy | Arizona Diamondbacks News

The Diamondbacks’ slim playoff hopes took a hit after a nail-biting 7-6 loss to the Rangers, fueled by a bizarre fifth-inning ground ball that bounced oddly off Arenado — leading to two runs and a five-run deficit. Despite Eduardo Rodriguez’s solid stuff and Arenado’s late-game heroics, including a three-run homer, the team couldn’t overcome the early damage. Now trailing the Padres by 2.5 games with just 12 left, their chances sit at a precarious 31%. A showdown against the Marlins looms as their best shot to claw back into contention.
