Geraldo Perdomo Taking A Seat On Saturday
Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Geraldo Perdomo is not in the starting lineup on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds. Left-hander Brandon Williamson is getting the start for the Reds so the switch-hitting Perdomo will start this contest on the bench, as has been the case for most of the season whenever the D-Backs face a southpaw. The […]

Brandon Pfaadt Recalled, Will Start On Saturday
Arizona Diamondbacks rookie starting pitcher Brandon Pfaadt has been recalled from Triple-A Reno and will start on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds. The 24-year-old rookie certainly draws a tough assignment in this one as Great American Ball Park is not an easy place to pitch. Pfaadt has really struggled over his first six major league […]

Ketel Marte Goes Deep Twice In Loss To Reds
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte did everything he could on Friday, but it still wasn't enough in a 9-6 loss to the Cincinnati Reds.

Evan Longoria Sitting Out On Friday
