Corbin

Carroll

Carroll needed “just” a homer for the cycle, as he also singled with a walk for good measure. The 25-year-old already has nine three-baggers on the season, and a 20-triple campaign can’t be ruled out; it’s right around what he’s on pace for. The double was his 16th, and the four runs driven in bring his total to 42. He’s having a good year, is what we’re saying.

Carroll made it a 5-1 game in the second by taking Sam Aldegheri deep. His batting average has been coming down some, but he now has six homers in 16 games in June. He totaled seven in 55 games over the first two months.

This is different. It’s mostly been Ketel Marte and Corbin Carroll atop Arizona’s lineup the last few weeks with Perdomo hitting towards the bottom of the order. The 26-year-old has seemingly pulled out of his early-season tailspin at the dish, hitting .333 (14-for-42) with one homer and three steals in 13 games since the start of June. Marte remains in the leadoff spot with Carroll hitting third during Monday’s series opener at Chase Field.

Carroll put the Diamondbacks on the board with a solo homer off Michael Soroka in the first inning. The home run would be the only run Arizona would score on the day. The home run was the 12th of the season for Carroll. The 25-year-old outfielder is hitting .282/.373/.552 with 43 runs scored, 34 RBI, and eight steals across 287 plate appearances.

Carroll put the Diamondbacks on the board with a solo homer off Eric Lauer in the third inning. He later added a base hit in the eighth. The 25-year-old outfielder is slashing an excellent .289/.380/.545 with eight homers, 38 runs scored, 29 RBI, and seven steals across 245 plate appearances.

Carroll’s first RBI triple came in the first inning, pulled down the right-field line. The second came in the sixth and split the right-center gap. Each one scored Ketel Marte. Carroll, still 25 years old, is now one of just four active players with 50 career triples according to Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports. The other three are Mike Trout, Starling Marte, and Andrew McCutchen. It’s only a matter of time until he’s the sole active leader. Carroll is off to the best offensive start of his career, sporting career-bests in BB percentage, batting average, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage. The only nitpick is that he’s running less than ever, but it’s worth remembering he significantly picked up his stolen-base pace in the second half last year. Either way, he’s rewarding fantasy managers who used an early-round selection on him.

Carroll got the D-backs on the board in the sixth inning on a fielder’s choice. The big knock was a few innings later, as he smoked a 105.8 mph single to score Gabriel Moreno to give the Diamondbacks the win. Carroll has now driven in 26 runs while posting a .282/.390/.552 slash over the first 49 games of the campaign.

Carroll passed “every test” after the incident, according to manager Torey Lovullo, and is available off the bench today. He’ll be back in the starting lineup on Thursday. Jorge Barrosa is playing right field today.

Carroll didn’t need Coors Field’s help on 112- and 103-mph homers today. He also walked and scored a third run in the contest. It’s his ninth career two-homer game and first of 2025 after he had four last season. Carroll is hitting .278/.390/.543, placing him 11th in MLB with a .933 OPS.

Carroll drew a walk in the third and was caught stealing second. He then drove in a run for Arizona with a double in the fifth. Carroll later drew a walk in the seventh to reach for a third time. Saturday marked the first time Carroll was caught stealing on seven attempts, and he’s been more aggressive coming into Saturday with steals on back-to-back days. The 25-year-old outfielder is slashing .272/.384/.503 with five homers, 28 runs scored, 21 RBI, and six steals across 177 plate appearances.
