Diamondbacks Dominate Cardinals 10-1 Behind Suárez's Two Homers and Carroll's Two Triples

PHOENIX — The Arizona Diamondbacks cruised to a dominant 10-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on 2025-07-19, showcasing a powerful offensive display led by Eugenio Suárez's two home runs and Corbin Carroll's two triples.

Offensive Explosion Powers Arizona

Suárez, a 34-year-old All-Star third baseman, continued his impressive power surge with two more homers, bringing his total to five multi-homer games this season, including a four-homer night on April 26. His 33 homers position him as arguably the top power bat available as the trade deadline approaches, a period of uncertainty for the Diamondbacks given their 49-50 record and fringe National League playoff contention. Since June 1, Suárez has blasted 18 home runs, the most in Major League Baseball. Corbin Carroll contributed significantly to the Diamondbacks' offense, hitting two triples, which extends his major league lead to 12.

Arizona ignited their offense early, jumping to a 3-0 lead in the first inning. Corbin Carroll led off with a triple, swiftly brought home by a Geraldo Perdomo single. After Josh Naylor reached on catcher's interference with two outs, Suárez launched a two-run homer to left field. The Diamondbacks extended their advantage to 5-0 in the second inning with RBI singles from Blaze Alexander and Geraldo Perdomo. Suárez continued his solo performance in the third with a solo shot to right center, further widening the gap.

Solid Start for Nelson, Struggles for Gray

Diamondbacks right-hander Ryne Nelson delivered a quality start, improving his record to 6-2 by allowing just one run on four hits over six impressive innings. On the other side, St. Louis right-hander Sonny Gray struggled, giving up a season-high nine runs, eight of which were earned, over 3 1/3 innings. He surrendered 11 hits while striking out five.

Alec Burleson hit a solo home run in the sixth inning for the Cardinals, who have now lost 10 of their past 14 games.
