The Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the Houston Astros 3-2 in the final game of their series, with left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez turning in a quality start. Rodriguez allowed one run over six innings, per Sportsnet.

Nolan Arenado provided the go-ahead offense, hitting a two-run homer in the victory. One outlet described Rodriguez's performance as reflecting his "fierceness" during Arizona's Wild Card campaign, though details on the specific nature of that performance were not available.

The win comes as the Diamondbacks sit in what multiple outlets describe as an effective tie with the Padres for the final National League Wild Card spot. Arizona has gone 5-5 over its last ten games, per Yahoo Sports.
