Let’s begin at SRF, where Arizona pounded Texas 14-1, helped by a ten-run fifth inning where Arizona sent 14 men to the plate, and Caleb Roberts hit a grand-slam. Eugenio Suarez got three hits, while Randal Grichuk and Trey Mancini each had a pair, Grichuk also going deep. Grae Kessinger reached base three times, on a hit and a pair of walks. The pitching was plenty good enough to make that stand up, with Corbin Burnes working four scoreless innings on two hits and a walk with five strikeouts. Kyle Backhus struck out three over two scoreless innings, with Ryan Thompson and Jake Rice also put up zeroes.
Diamondbacks 14/7, Rangers 1/Athletics 5
