Snakes Territory: An Arizona Diamondbacks Podcast

Down 2-0 late against the Dodgers, the Diamondbacks scored two in the eighth to tie it before Ketel Marte destroyed a walk-off home run against Tanner Scott in the ninth. We discuss Marte overcoming his recent struggles with another dramatic hit.
Plus, we discuss Corbin Carroll's impressive home run the inning prior, Geraldo Perdomo's key hit and the D-backs' disastrous fifth inning that nearly cost them the game. We also react to Corbin Burnes' unfortunate setback, and break down why the D-backs decided to send Brandon Pfaadt down to the minors.
Plus, we revisit our conversation on a recent episode about why Zac Gallen is on the decline. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on this packed live edition of Snakes Territory.

Missed opportunities abounded for the Diamondbacks on Tuesday as they went 2-for-12 with runners in scoring position in a 6-5 loss to Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers. What's up with the D-backs situational hitting lately, and why did Geraldo Perdomo lay down a bunt in a 3-1 count in the ninth inning? We dive in to that decision.
Meanwhile, Michael Soroka bounced back nicely from a rough first couple innings, and Jonathan Loaísiga allowed two key runs out of the bullpen. On the positive side, Corbin Carroll continues to destroy left-handed pitching.

The Diamondbacks snapped their three-game losing streak with an impressive 4-1 win over Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday night at Chase Field. Eduardo Rodriguez's tossed another gem, Tommy Troy launched his first career home run in a pivotal spot and both the bullpen and defense were stellar. What worked so well for E-Rod in his latest stellar outing?
Meanwhile, teams apparently are still allowing left-handed relievers against Ketel Marte, as Ketel launched another late-game homer to pad the D-backs' lead. We also revisit several key defensive plays by Ildemaro Vargas and Jorge Barrosa that helped secure the win.
Finally, we discuss roster moves, injury updates on Jordan Lawlar, Lourdes Gurriel Jr., AJ Puk and others, and much more. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on this live postgame edition of Snakes Territory. 🌶️

For the first time in more than two weeks, the D-backs lost a game that did not go down to the wire. Instead, Bryan Woo tossed seven scoreless innings and Ryne Nelson gave up four homers in a 5-1 loss to the Seattle Mariners.
What's up with Nelson give up so many home run this year? And what went wrong for the D-backs' offense? We also revisit Friday's 10-inning loss to the Mariners, in which Brandon Pfaadt allowed a key run out of the bullpen. Is it time for the D-backs to send Pfaadt down to Triple-A? We also talk injury updates on Nolan Arenado, AJ Puk and others. Plus, we dream about a potential Tarik Skubal trade at the deadline. What would it take to entice the Detroit Tigers?
