D-backs vs. Padres Game Highlights (7/7/25) | MLB Highlights | Arizona Diamondbacks

The biggest buzz tonight. Yu Darvish making his 2025 season debut after missing the first part of the season. So you Darvish returns first time. We have seen him since game five of the NL Ds last year. It is really good to have him back. The adrenaline has got to be pumping. I don’t care if you’re a rookie or a 1012 year veteran for Yu Darvish 16 starts last season. 73 really good numbers. Corbin Carroll top of the order in right field. Corbin yesterday named to his second National league all star team swing and a miss struck him out on that curveball and Yu Darvish strikes out Corbin Carrell first batter he faces here in 2025. This was originally where you would have been facing Cattell Martek but Marte was scratched. I don’t know, an hour and a half ago, two hours ago with what the Diamondbacks are calling right groin tightness. This is too short. Bogaerts was positioned perfectly and had to get it there in a hurry. Perdomo got down the line pretty quickly and successfully. So for Xander two down, did he go? Yes, he did bring him up. Second key of the inning for yu Darvish 10 pitch inning right hander Zack Galen, the 545, A is the highest among all qualified major league starters. Fernando started the night at 2 61 15 homers, 39 runs batted in and news yesterday that he is going to his third all star game ball. Four misses down for Fernando and that is certainly been a part of the problem for Gallen this year and that was his 43rd walk allowed Merrill has gone deep five times this year. 29 runs batted in the 276 average for Jackson swing and a miss a high heater and he cuffed him a strikeout of Merrill and now one down four Machado Machado comes into play today. He’s two hits shy of 2000 for his illustrious career line to left. There’s 1999 off to second base goes Fernando in the ringing single for Manny Machado might be the ninth at second Machado at first and luis arrives for the first time tonight on the ground to first base. Naylor will go to second for one covering his gall off the hits and from third scoring will be Fernando Padres on the board but arise is hurt after being hit with that throw. That was a bad throw from second base on the home plate side. He’s ok. Here’s Naylor going from the Padres to the Cleveland Guardians that one is Lowe as well. It’s a leadoff walk. He saw balls for Naylor brings up Eugenio Suarez an all star this year for the second time in his career. Josh has got a big jump. He stopped halfway started again and Geno rolls it down the line. Naylor on the move, sean Larkin going to wave him home. He will score it gets away from sheets and Geno ties it. Baylor took off, came to a dead stop and Then started again right as Geno is knocking it by Machado at third Suarez at second base. 3 to 2 pitch and that’s ball four and that is the second walk of the inning allowed by Darvish was unusual mccann six hits in five games with the Diamondbacks. He has doubled twice in homer, a run home at the third strikeout for yu Darvish two on two down run in for the Snakes and here’s blaze, Alexander fly ball right field Tatis coming in a step or two now over a step or two. Number three in the top of the order coming up, here’s Corbin Carroll and Corbin right on the button splits the gap in right center go. Corbin go, he’s moving along as it gets all to the track and Corbin’s in at second with a stand up double and there’s a big smile all your first hit. You come back from injury, finally get one runner at third , only one man down. And now here is Gel Goel struck out of the first los rolls it through and he does the job. A two strike hit for Gurriel and it’s 2 to 1 Diamondbacks tried to go back to that and just left it over the middle. That’s just a little bit of the rust. I knock for lourdes Diamondbacks now with three hits a wild curveball from Darvish and that got him. Naylor will take his base and Darvish who was in trouble in the second in trouble again here in the third Geno and our big double down the left field line , his first time up fly ball down the left field line sending sheets over to the corner sheets will make the catch almost overran it and fires it back in. That came back in the corner, a ground ball right side, Kronor to the back hand fires to first and yet again, Darvish able to limit the damage. Darvish is in his 20th season as a professional pitcher, two to mccann swung on and missed and Darvish gets him to chase a sweeper, strikes him out for the second time tonight swinging as the sweeper gets it strikeout for Yu Darvish and that’s going to be the night, but a welcome sight to see Yu Darvish back on the hill and I’m quite sure the fans will let him know what they think of him as he comes off. His first outing of 2025 is over for yu Darvish 2 to 1 Diamondbacks, Manny Machado is hitting on 1999 hits leads off against zack singled to left field in the first inning here he is leading off the home half of the fourth inning hit. Number 2000 of his career for Manny Machado as he continues to build on his resume towards the hall. 2000 career hits for Manny Machado. Chalked up 2000 for number 13. What a beautiful thing. Congratulations to Manny Machado Zack Gallen who always seems to do well against the Padres the last five against the Padres three and oh, with a 2.56 a can’t believe he’s going to come back and he is three and now they’re going to start to hear from that Padre dugout. They have been all over the plate umpire. A is loaded two outs. Trenton brooks will be next hit into a double play his first time up on the first pitch as a 2 to 0 is swung on and an easy fly ball to center Thomas is there. He’ll make the catch and Gallen works out of trouble as the Padres leave them loaded. Josh Naylor has walked and scored. He’s been hit by a pitch in the cleanup spot left on left here for Naylor Naylor Clobbers one deep to center Merrill on the run and this one’s gone. Josh Naylor sends one out of here. The former Padre makes it 4 to 1. Diamondback. Josh Naylor his 11th home run of the season and he gives the Diamondbacks some breathing room. It’s now one more breathing room and hopefully that confidence continues to build inning by any he’s set up now to be able to go at least six over the top of the curveball. And Gallen gets strikeout number five. Second time he’s got swing and a miss on the change up 2 to 26 strikeouts for Gallen and two of those strikeouts, Josh Cole have come against Jackson Merrill. Two strike three called a fastball right there and Gallen strikes out the side in order in the bottom of the fifth, he’s racked up seven on the night. 297th major league player to reach 2000 hits. 138 of the 296 to reach 2000 career hits are in the hall of fame. Far center field, Thomas back, tried the track. We will make the catch for 12 twin and a miss and he struck out sheets. That is number eight for gallon. You look at his last two starts , 18 strikeouts, two runs allowed only one of them earned swing and a Miss Bogart strikes out and another master class from Gallen here tonight, he strikes out nine Padres and allows one run over six innings one to third Iglesias to second sets the table tying run at the plate here in the seventh inning , fernando grounds on to second base Alexander is going to first for the out run will score and it’s 4 to 2. Fernando grounds up picks up an RB I his 40th of the year. There’s an opportunity here for up to Corbin with two down to get that run home Orbin belts it to right center. Here comes mccann to make it 5 to 2. Corbin Carroll is on the run. He’s headed for third. No pro. He’s got the RV I triple 10 triples for Corbin in a 52 diamond back lead his national league leading 10th triple right there. Perdomo with a runner at third in Corbin Carroll, Gmo dunks it into right and it’s 6 to 2.A pad run comes home ninth hit for the diamondback. It is 6 to 2 over the Padres man , two for three, collected his 2000 field off the bat of Machado. It’s back. It is gone hit number 2001 is a home run his 15th of the year one swing of the bat. The Padres have cut the game in half again. Bases loaded. They got Iglesias coming up for his second A B pitch hit popped up infield, fly in effect, two out bases loaded situation. Two outs in the eighth, Diaz coming off the bench here. That’s inning for maldonado runners on the move. He got him, got the big strikeout and somehow Murillo dances through the danger. 63 Diamondbacks have to lead to go to the bottom of the ninth. Kevin Ginkel into the game. He’s a Vaquero San Diego kid fernando leading it off. It’s ball four. The leadoff walk starts here in the bottom of the ninth. Now, Jackson Maryland zero for 493 strikeouts and foula deep right, center field struck. Well, Thomas going back, caught a sliding grab by Alec Thomas Tatis off the bag and he barely makes it back in time. What a catch by Alex Thomas. How did he get to that one? Wow. It has been a near perfect night for Manning three for four. Like his 2/1000 career hit in the fourth inning tap to third Geno one plays two. They got it and the Diamondbacks pull one out in San Diego 6 to 3. Your final. Alex Thomas with a sensational catch and a double play ball off the bat of Machado closes out a 6 to 3 diamondback win.
