On Sunday, Nolan Arenado hit his third grand slam of the season in the fifth inning to help the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the New York Yankees 8-4 in Phoenix.

This victory was Arizona’s 47th comeback win of the year, keeping them competitive for a wildcard spot in the National League. Meanwhile, New York's slim chances to secure the American League East title dwindled further; they need to sweep their upcoming series against Tampa Bay starting Tuesday and receive additional help from other teams to stay alive in the division race.
