Rooker singled and scored on Tyler Soderstrom's second double of the game to make it 5-0 in the fourth.

Extend win-streak to three games

Newly-acquired pitcher Mason Miller brought the heat Friday against the St. Louis Cardinals for his first game as a Padre.

The Arizona Diamondbacks open a three-game series with the Athletics in Sacramento.

The Arizona Diamondbacks are entering the second phase of a 2025 season that has gone everywhere but according to plan. Arizona parted with three members of their offense and three pitchers at the MLB Trade Deadline, nearly gutting a team that had high expectations heading into the season. As difficult as it is to part with a player like Eugenio Suárez, his departure brought in an exciting new prospect in power-hitting first baseman Tyler Locklear, who will make his D-backs debut on Friday night.

Next World Series very far away.

The MLB trade deadline has finally passed, and the Arizona Diamondbacks can get back to the business of playing games unencumbered by the weight of that event. The D-backs are in Sacramento for three games against the Athletics at Sutter Home Park. Arizona is 51-58, in fourth place in the NL West, and nine games out of the NL Wild Card spot. The Athletics are 48-63, in last place in the AL West.
