Diamondbacks closer Paul Sewald gave up a three-run home run in the ninth inning as the Diamondbacks lost their series to the Chicago White Sox on Thursday. Is it time for the D-backs to stop using Sewald in non-save situations?

Plus, we discuss our takeaways from the series, from Merrill Kelly continuing to struggle after returning to injury to Ildemaro Vargas hitting non-stop home runs to a D-backs pitching staff that has regressed significantly in recent days. We also talk about Nolan Arenado and Geraldo Perdomo turning their seasons around.

Finally, we preview the Diamondbacks’ upcoming Mexico City Series against the San Diego Padres. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory.

Down 7-1 to the San Diego Padres in the sixth inning on Sunday, the Diamondbacks stormed back to win one of the more memorable games in recent years. Of course, Ildemaro Vargas had a central role to play, notching three extra-base hits and driving in four runs on his way to winning NL Player of the Week.

Meanwhile, Ryne Nelson had not other rough outing, and several D-backs have gone down with injury, most recently Adrian Del Castillo. How soon should we expect him back?

We also preview the Diamondbacks' series against the Milwaukee Brewers and check in on the NL standings one month into the season. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory.

The Diamondbacks notched an early 4-0 lead over the San Diego Padres in Mexico City, but a brutal seventh inning ultimately led to a 6-4 loss. Was Torey Lovullo late to remove a struggling Brandon Pfaadt from the game? Was Taylor Clarke the right man for the job?

Plus, we have injury updates on Geraldo Perdomo and Zac Gallen, both of whom exited the game early. We also discuss Alek Thomas hitting a two-run homer and Jose Fernandez turning in another solid performance.

Finally, we preview Sunday's finale with Ryne Nelson and Michael King on the mound. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on a live postgame edition of Snakes Territory.

Disastrous Seventh Inning Dooms D-backs in Mexico City Loss to Padres

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/e55c7ed5-be0a-4f67-bde7-b43800215592/transcript

Diamondbacks right-hander Ryne Nelson recorded all of one out in his Sunday outing against the Toronto Blue Jays, allowing eight runs in a lackluster D-backs loss. Meanwhile, Brandon Pfaadt delivered 6 1/3 solid innings out of the bullpen. Is it too early to wonder if Nelson's rotation spot is in jeopardy?

We also discuss Corbin Carroll leaving Sunday's game early, and our expectations for when Gabriel Moreno will return to the lineup. Plus, we do deep dives on the D-backs' pitching staff, and a plethora of minor leaguers, including Ryan Waldschmidt, LuJames Groover and more.

Finally, we preview the upcoming series against the Chicago White Sox. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers for another edition of Snakes Territory.
