The Arizona Diamondbacks dropped a game to the Texas Rangers on September 12 at Chase Field following a pivotal replay decision. The contest included an inning that proved costly for the team after an overturned challenge altered the sequence of play. Starting pitcher Brandon Pfaadt was removed during the seventh inning of the matchup. In personnel moves, the Diamondbacks recalled Pavin Smith to the active roster to bolster offensive production against right-handed pitching. Despite the team's ongoing struggles, Corbin Carroll continues to establish new Major League Baseball records throughout the season.
