PHOENIX — Corbin Carroll hit a go-ahead grand slam off Edwin Díaz in the eighth inning, part of a two-homer night that lifted the Arizona Diamondbacks over the New York Mets 8-5 on Wednesday.
The Diamondbacks trailed 5-4 heading into the eighth, but staged a two-out rally against the Mets' closer. Díaz (5-3) entered with a runner on first and promptly walked pinch-hitter Pavin Smith and Geraldo Perdomo before Carroll smacked his second homer of the game into the right-field seats.
"The right man in the right spot stepped up," Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said.
