Analysis: Quantrill was able to work through the injury and picked up the win to improve his record to 9-5, allowing two runs on five hits while striking out four across six innings.

Sun, Sep 13, 2026, 8:58 AM

Analysis: The 34-year-old initially remained in to run the bases after the hit-by-pitch but was eventually replaced by a pinch hitter. The results of the initial X-rays are encouraging, but Pederson is still scheduled to undergo further testing to determine the full extent of the injury. The slugger wasn't likely to be in the lineup for Sunday's series finale regardless of the injury since lefty Eduardo Rodriguez is taking the mound for Arizona. |
