Former American League Cy Young winner Dallas Keuchel made his debut for Arizona after being signed to a minor-league contract on June 6.
Scott Bordow Associated Press PHOENIX — Daulton Varsho hit a three-run homer, Pavin Smith had a career-high four hits and three RBIs and the Arizona Diamondbacks avoided a series sweep with a 11-7 win over the Detroit Tigers on Sunday.Varsho's homer was his 10th of the season, and came in a five-run sixth inning for Arizona. The Diamondbacks had 13 total hits on Sunday.
Detroit came right back in the top of the fifth to take a 6-5 lead. Keuchel was lifted after giving up a one-out walk to Riley Greene, and Wendelken walked Spencer Torkelson and gave up a first-pitch three-run homer to Haase. “He threw the ball really well in his last outing,” Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said. “We've been having a lot of discussions. We had some internal options. We feel like he deserves this opportunity, and he's been working really hard to make this happen.”
