Atlanta, GA – An epic feat shook Truist Park this Thursday, as the Arizona Diamondbacks staged a spectacular comeback against the Atlanta Braves, securing a historic sweep in the series.

Impossible Comeback

The Diamondbacks, facing a six-run deficit in the ninth inning, mounted a relentless offensive to beat the Braves with a score of 11-10. With a minimal chance of winning, the Arizona team demonstrated astonishing resilience.

The key moment arrived with a two-run double by Venezuelan Eugenio Suárez, who sealed the comeback. Suárez, after a strikeout at the beginning of the inning, became the hero of the day.

This game doesn’t end until the 27 outs are recorded. We went step by step. We never gave up.

The Diamondbacks’ offense ignited with a solo home run by Cuban Lourdes Gurriel Jr., followed by a home run by Alek Thomas. Contributions from José Herrera, Corbin Carroll, Ketel Marte, and Ildemaro Vargas were crucial for the comeback.

A Historical Fact

This victory is even more remarkable considering the D-backs had a record of 0-419 when losing by six or more runs after eight innings. Furthermore, the Braves hadn’t lost a game with a similar lead since 1973, breaking a streak of 766 consecutive wins.

This team is dynamic. We never know when the comeback is going to start, but we trust that it can come at any moment.
