• The Cardinals' 81 home runs all-time at Chase Field (in 56 games) are the most by any team outside of the National League West.

• The D-backs' 93-71 home record since 2011 is the NL's sixth-best mark.

 

I am glad to see Craig taking the place of Beltran. Clearly, Carlos is is not 100% with that broken toe in his foot.
