PHOENIX -- When the runs come for the D-backs, they come in bunches. Opening Day when they scored 14 runs in the third inning and 16 overall. Or April 16 against the Cubs when they plated 12 or April 19 when they got the Giants for 17 runs. Their latest

Beekeeper-turned-folk hero Matt Hilton had quite the experience on Tuesday night, saving the Dodgers-Diamondbacks game from a swarm of bees. His legend has only continued to grow since then. Topps announced that it has signed a deal with Hilton and is making autographed cards to commemorate his performance. The moment

Pitchers are meant to be ahead of hitters. Sluggers need at-bats to get into the rhythm of the season, and that takes time. Or at least that’s how the popular belief goes. But some Minor League hitters are proving they don’t need time at all to come flying out of

PHOENIX -- A few hours before Christian Walker’s second homer of the game gave the D-backs a 4-3 walk-off win over the Dodgers in the 10th inning, a crucial series of events was about to start unfolding at a different type of ballgame on the Westside of the Valley. A

PHOENIX -- For the first time in the 27 years that Chase Field has been open, the Circle K Strikeout Meter in right field was blank when the game ended. Part of the ballpark when it opened in 1998, it charts the number of strikeouts by Arizona pitchers. For just

There's a longtime scout who likes to say, "The Draft is hard." The 2014 Draft was very hard. It's just one of three Drafts where the No. 1 overall pick finished his career without reaching the Majors, and the only one where neither of the top two selections made it.

SEATTLE -- The D-backs' three-city, 10-game, 11-day, 5,027-mile road trip finally came to an end Sunday and while they didn’t end up with as many wins as they had hoped, they did end it on a positive note with a 3-2 win over the Mariners at T-Mobile Park. With the

There are a kajillion reasons to love baseball -- especially Minor League Baseball. The bobblehead, which has been greeted with an enthusiastic "Yes" from baseball fans at least since MLB put out a set featuring the likes of Roberto Clemente, Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays in 1960, combines many of

ST. LOUIS -- It wasn’t the result that Jordan Montgomery and the D-backs were hoping for on Wednesday, but the long-term ramifications are promising. While the D-backs suffered a 5-1 loss to the Cardinals in the rubber game of a three-game series, what Montgomery (1-1) was able to do in

Three years ago, Charlie Condon attracted zero interest from pro scouts or NCAA Division I baseball programs. He wound up at Georgia as a preferred walk-on and redshirted during his first season in Athens. Now he's the best prospect in the 2024 Draft and sits atop MLB Pipeline's updated and
