The red hot Diamondbacks returned home from a 5-1 road trip, but it would be no walk in the park as they were scheduled to squared off against the NL Best Philadelphia Phillies in another rematch of last year’s 2023 NLCS.
Thursdays series opener was unfortunately the end to the Diamondbacks 4 game winning streak, as a 6th inning blowup from Jordan Montgomery and the Snakes bullpen was just too much for the DBacks to overcome as they would be taken down by Kolby Allarr and the Phillies. The question on the fellas minds were if Monty is fully to blame, or does Torey shoulder some of the blame by leaving him out there a bit longer than most of us would have assumed he would.
