The Diamondbacks came back to beat the Blue Jays 5-4 in a gritty win.
Geraldo Perdomo hit a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth inning to score Corbin Carroll from third base with the winning run in the Diamondbacks 5-4 walk off victory over the Toronto Blue Jays. The D-backs are now 48-47, and finish the night over .500 for the first time since April 3rd when they were 4-3.
It was Perdomo's first walk off RBI in the major leagues. Asked his mindset for the at bat, Perdomo responded simply: "Win the game!". After much laughter he said, "Oh, you think I'm joking?" He went on to explain he felt Green would throw a fastball and he just wanted to get the ball in the air. A single a double, and RBI groundout plated the first run against Nelson in the fifth. George Springer hit a leadoff triple in the sixth and scored on a sacrifice fly. Varsho hit the second leadoff triple in a row to start the 7th, and also scored on a sacrifice fly.
This is the fifth time this year Nelson has pitched into the seventh inning, and he's completed the frame three times. He's gone six innings or longer seven times. Thats tied with Zac Gallen for the second most on the team behind Brandon Pfaadt's 14.
