Diamondbacks Game Preview #140: 9/12 vs. Dodgers

The Arizona Diamondbacks made the following roster moves:

  • Recalled OF Jordan Luplow from Triple-A Reno.
  • Designated INF Wilmer Difo for assignment.

Ryne Nelson’s MLB debut was better than anything he, we and everyone connected with the Diamondbacks could have hoped for. Seven shutout innings? That’ll do. Throw in the no walks and seven strikeouts and you are into almost unprecedented territory. The only previous pitcher to accomplish all that in their first game was Nick Kingham of the 2018 Pirates. But let’s hope Nelson’s career doesn’t follow a similar path.
