With their backs firmly against the wall, the Diamondbacks notched their 47th comeback win of the season on Sunday, beating the New York Yankees behind a Nolan Arenado grand slam. We explain what made Arenado's swing so special and what has led to his excellent season.

Meanwhile, Corbin Burnes was unable to get out of the third inning, and his stuff was down considerably from his past two outings. Can the Diamondbacks really afford to use him next weekend in another must-win game? What happened to the shape of Burnes' signature cutter?

Finally, we look ahead to the final week of the regular season. Are the D-backs effectively eliminated in the NL wild card race? What needs to happen the rest of the way for them to get in?

Snakes Territory: An Arizona Diamondbacks Podcast

D-backs Live To Fight Another Day as Arenado’s Grand Slam Beats Yankees

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/0dd9c3ba-5cd6-44ec-9252-b4cc003eecbe/transcript

Just as we all expected, Pavin Smith delivered a pinch-hit, walk-off home run against the Yankees on Saturday night to lead the Diamondbacks to a much-needed win and keep their dwindling postseason hopes alive. We discuss Smith's huge swing, and the many smaller wins throughout the game that helped set the table for it, including an enormous two-run triple from Jordan Lawlar in the fifth inning.

Where does the win leave the D-backs in the postseason race? Do they now have a better chance of catching the Phillies than the Padres? Does the Phillies' tough schedule give the D-backs a legitimate opportunity?

Finally, we discuss the Diamondbacks' 2001 World Series celebration ceremony, which brought a bunch of D-backs legends, including Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling, back to Chase Field. Plus, Dr. Jesse McGuire delivered one of the most impressive performances of the evening, singing the second half of the National Anthem after his trumpet malfunctioned.

Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers for another live postgame edition of Snakes Territory, the official Arizona Diamondbacks show in the Foul Territory network.

Pavin Smith Walks Off Yankees as D-backs Stay Alive in Wild Card Race

For the second straight night, the Diamondbacks could not get the big hit against the Miami Marlins. How slim are their playoff chances following the series loss? Do they still have a path to pass the San Diego Padres?

We also discuss several big moments from the game, from stranding the bases loaded in the first inning to Jordan Lawlar being cut down at second to end the game. Should the D-backs have kept him at first with Ketel Marte at hte plate?

We also look ahead to the Yankees series and answer a few superchats. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory, the official Arizona Diamondbacks show in the Foul Territory network.

D-backs Lose Huge Series to Marlins, Fall 3.5 Games Back in Wild Card Race

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/e6c13845-4104-41b0-8aba-b4c800682739/transcript

After back-to-back losses to the Rangers and the Padres now having won seven in a row, is the D-backs' season on the brink of collapse? We discuss what went wrong in their final two games against the Texas Rangers and where it leaves them with 12 games to play. Do they have enough time to make up the ground?

We discuss an offense that continues to struggle against right-handers, a surprising string of defensive mistakes and Brandon Pfaadt coming back down to earth over the past month. What are the keys to success as the D-backs take on the Marlins and Yankees this next week?

Finally, we hit on some recent news items, including Lourdes Gurriel Jr. being designated for assignment, Pavin Smith finding his way back to the majors and Zac Gallen officially landing in the bullpen.
