Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll whacked a two-run homer to complete a five-run comeback in the ninth inning and walk it off at Chase Field for a wild 9-8 win over the Washington Nationals on Monday.
Arizona was in a big hole early after starter Jordan Montgomery gave up six runs in the first two innings. The D-backs trailed 8-2 through six innings before a Geraldo Perdomo RBI single in the seventh and Joc Pederson RBI single in the eighth cut the deficit to four.
Three straight hits in the ninth followed, an Alek Thomas triple, Perdomo RBI single and Ketel Marte two-run homer to all of a sudden make it a one-run game with no outs.
