Date and venue: September 14, 2019, at Chase Field; Phoenix, AZ
Pitching matchup: RHP Anthony DeSclafani (9-8, 4.06 ERA) vs. RHP Merrill Kelly (10-14, 4.68 ERA)
Setup and context: Middle game of a weekend three-game set; the Diamondbacks were swooning, as they entered with a six-game losing streak that pushed them out of the NL wild-card race.
