His third triple of the 2026 season was a blast at the top of the seventh inning, and it was more than just another highlight. Carroll looks locked in early, and when he\u2019s at this level, the Diamondbacks\u2019 offense starts clicking like a well-oiled machine. Ketel Marte and Jos\u00e9 Perdomo are waiting in the wings, but Carroll can be the catalyst.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"standard-img\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2af6b9b94aa1b0562a656565bd7321f0.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Apr 8, 2026; New York City, New York, USA; Arizona Diamondbacks right fielder Corbin Carroll (7) reacts after hitting a double against the New York Mets during the first inning at Citi Field.

MLB\u2019s all-time triples leader, Chief Wilson, set a pretty high mark of 36 in 1912. Carroll already owns the D-backs\u2019 top two spots in franchise history for most triples, and could climb even higher past his record of 14 triples back in 2024 and 17 triples back in 2025. Carroll\u2019s 2026 start positions him to potentially dominate the leaderboard once again, highlighting the strategic impact of having a true game-changing leadoff hitter.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"standard-img\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/9bceb9d93101ec31c242f2cbc67318b6.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mar 30, 2026; Phoenix, Arizona, USA; Arizona Diamondbacks right fielder Corbin Carroll (7) hits a triple against the Detroit Tigers in the first inning at Chase Field.

His triples don\u2019t just fill the box score; they shift games, energize the crowd, and force pitchers into mistakes. The psychological lift of a hot Carroll at the top of the order can ripple through an entire lineup, turning close games into commanding wins. If Corbin Carroll maintains this trajectory, the Diamondbacks aren\u2019t just watching franchise history; they\u2019re making it with every triple, driving both team success and fan excitement toward the MLB record books.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"standard-img\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/9c39025b464e19afb13734e3ea2caa47.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Aug 31, 2025; Los Angeles, California, USA; Arizona left fielder Corbin Carroll (7) celebrates in the dugout after hitting a three-run home run during the eighth inning off Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Tanner Scott (66) at Dodger Stadium.
