Diamondbacks Defeat Red Sox 10-5 With Three Home Runs

The Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the Boston Red Sox 10-5 in a game highlighted by strong defensive plays and timely hitting. Eduardo Rodriguez pitched effectively for Arizona, aided by a pivotal defensive throw from Blaze Alexander that prevented a scoring opportunity and helped Rodriguez deliver a quality start. The Diamondbacks' offense was powered by home runs from Geraldo Perdomo, Corbin Carroll, and Ildemaro Vargas, with Perdomo driving in two runs and leading National League shortstops with 90 RBIs. Boston struggled with pitching, as rookie Payton Tolle lasted only three innings, allowing five runs and four walks, while the bullpen faltered in the later innings. Despite a late rally from the Red Sox, including a four-run eighth inning, Arizona's offense responded immediately to secure the win. The victory marked the Diamondbacks' third consecutive win and improved their record to .500, while Boston fell behind in the American League East and wild-card race.
