In the KBO League, like the KT Wiz, there was a miraculous sight that once raised the win-loss margin from -14 to +5. It’s the Arizona Diamondbacks.토토사이트
Arizona lost 5-10 in the 2023 Major League Baseball San Diego Padres home game held at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona, on the 12th (Korean time).
With this loss, Arizona fell into a 9-game losing streak. With a season record of 57 wins and 59 losses, they are in third place in the National League West Division. They are only one game away from 4th place San Diego.
On this day, Arizona collapsed after giving up a first run in the first inning, giving up two runs in the second inning and four runs in the third. In the 8th inning, which was trailing 2-7, Tommy Pham’s 3-run homer hit and put pressure on the team by 2 runs, but they gave up 3 runs again in the 9th inning and eventually lost.
Coach Torrey Robulo expressed regret after the game, saying, “It was a big hole that we dug ourselves in the beginning of the game. It was not enough to overcome.” He continued, pointing out, “We didn’t play our game overall, we didn’t get the hits we needed. We expect to show a little bit more dynamics. We need to make some adjustments.”
In fact, over the past month alone, Arizona has been on a massive decline. Until last July 2nd, Arizona was in first place in the National League West Division. The Los Angeles Dodgers are second. At that time, the win-loss margin was 50-34 +16, and the winning rate was 0.588.
In August, things changed 180 degrees. There is no plus in the win-loss margin, but rather it has fallen into a minus.
There are also voices coming out of Arizona’s fall.
Reporter Bob Nightingale of USA Today said, “Arizona’s hardships continue. They have lost 25 of their recent 32 games. On July 1, the win rate was over 50%, and if they paced, they could have won 95 wins. Now, they are below 50%. “I’m one game ahead of fourth-place San Diego.”
The fans showed reactions such as “This is a nightmare”, “I thought it would be fun even at the beginning of the season”, and “It’s over”.
