The Diamondbacks are one win away from advancing to the NLDS after stellar play from the bullpen and Evan Longoria.
MILWAUKEE — If the Diamondbacks’ three-homer barrage wasn’t enough to silence the Brewers faithful, then Evan Longoria’s defense was.
“I kind of just jumped and threw my glove up and it’s just a reaction,” Longoria said. “Sometimes I don’t even jump for those but for whatever reason I threw my glove up there, felt it hit my glove and I can’t believe I even caught it.”Ryan Thompson, who was one of six Arizona relievers to make an appearance, struck out Brice Turang for the first out.Tyrone Taylor’s apparent go-ahead two-run single into left field turned into a leaping catch by Longoria for the second out.
An inning later, following a Christian Yelich leadoff walk, William Contreras’ chopper to the left side was hit too softly for shortstop Geraldo Perdomo to make a play. Instead of two runners on base with no outs, Longoria’s throw to Ketel Marte resulted in the first out of the inning. If that wasn’t enough, Longoria’s backhanded diving stop in the 7th inning nearly resulted in another highlight reel play against Adames, but the throw was a fraction too late to first base.
