Soroka’s Masterclass Nearly Overshadowed as Diamondbacks’ Bullpen Falters in Nail-Biting Win Over Tigers

Soroka’s Masterclass Nearly Overshadowed as Diamondbacks’ Bullpen Falters in Nail-Biting Win Over Tigers

Digging into Soroka’s outing, the only quibble might be his efficiency. He needed 25 pitches just to get through the first inning, juggling two strikeouts along with a walk and a hit. This early labor set a cautious tone, as he was already at eighty pitches by the end of the fourth — teetering on the edge of whether he’d make it through the fifth and qualify for the win. Interestingly, the 50/50 raffle tied to the game shattered the home opener record, amassing over $330,000. His “slurve” — a slider and curve combo — was sharp, but full counts stacked up, hiking the pitch total. Then came that magical fifth inning that left the crowd in awe.
