Diamondbacks and Nationals continue series as Lovullo emphasizes baserunning

The Diamondbacks face the Washington Nationals on July 25 in the second game of their three-game series at Nationals Park. Manager Torey Lovullo highlighted a baserunning misstep by Geraldo Perdomo, who was caught out on the bases, noting the team ranks well in overall baserunning but needs to improve decision-making. Lovullo also made lineup adjustments, moving Ketel Marte to the fourth spot and Corbin Carroll to leadoff. Mitch Bratt starts for the Diamondbacks against Foster Griffin of the Nationals, both pitchers showing varying forms this season. The series concludes on July 26 before the Diamondbacks head to Pittsburgh for a two-game set starting July 27.
