PHOENIX -- Normally, Corbin Carroll becoming the first 30-30 player in Diamondbacks history would be the biggest takeaway from Sunday's game against the Phillies, but against all odds, Arizona is still alive in the postseason chase.
The Diamondbacks' 9-2 win over the Phillies at Chase Field, combined with the Mets' loss to the Nationals, moved the D-backs to within one game of the Mets and Reds , who are tied for the third and final NL Wild Card spot.
Eduardo Rodriguez tossed six scoreless innings and the Diamondbacks scored six runs in the first two innings to take control of the game.
That Arizona is in this position after trading away a number of its veteran players at the Trade Deadline is a big surprise even to some of its players.
