The lead
May 10, 2026 - Phoenix - The Arizona Diamondbacks gave the home crowd a Sunday starter worth standing for. Eduardo Rodríguez carried a no-hit bid into the sixth, Ryan Waldschmidt collected his first three big-league RBIs, and Arizona beat the New York Mets 5-1 to close a rough road swing for the visitors, per the Associated Press recap on CBS Sports.
How the game turned
Rodríguez (4-0) did not allow a hit until Carson Benge’s bloop single with one out in the sixth; Luis Torrens followed with an RBI double just inside the right-field line for New York’s lone run, per AP. Until then, Rodríguez’s mix held Juan Soto to a walk to start the fourth as the first baserunner.
Waldschmidt—who debuted mid-series—doubled home two runs in the second after opener Huascar Brazobán (2-1) opened with consecutive walks, then added a bloop RBI single during a sixth-inning rally capped by Ketel Marte’s two-run triple after another error from Andy Ibáñez at third.
Pitching and matchup notes
Rodríguez finished 8 1/3 innings on four hits, four strikeouts, and three walks—his deepest outing in the majors to date after never before pitching into the ninth, per AP. He left to a standing ovation after Mark Vientos’ bloop single finally chased him.
Bats that changed the board
Waldschmidt’s week of firsts—pinch knock, busy center-field afternoon, then Sunday’s run production—gave Arizona breathing room while the Mets mustered only four hits and committed three errors on the May 10 card, according to AP.
New York’s Juan Soto finished 0-for-3 on the afternoon and 4-for-33 on the trip with two RBI; AP also noted Bo Bichette finished 0-for-20 in the series alongside Soto’s skid.
AthX Engine fantasy angle
Arizona posted 12 AthX Engine team FP on May 10, with Rodríguez earning 23.33 pitching FP on AthX Engine during a near-complete-game effort. Long starts with weak contact still accumulate fantasy separation even when the strikeout column stays modest. AthX Engine differs from dynamic pricing.
What comes next
Arizona lines up Freddy Peralta against Detroit while the Mets regroup after a 5-2 start to a nine-game trip gave way to a quiet desert finale.
