Paul Sewald - Secures 22nd save Sewald picked up the save Sunday against the Dodgers. He struck out one across a perfect inning.

Impact Sewald made quick work of the Dodgers in the ninth inning, retiring the side in order on 12 pitches (nine strikes) to secure the save. Despite a 4.24 ERA, the right-hander has converted 22 of 23 save opportunities this season while posting a 0.88 WHIP and 38:8 K:BB across 34 innings. Sewald ranks fourth among National League relievers in saves, trailing Mason Miller (25), as well as Jhoan Duran and Riley O'Brien (24).

Mitch Bratt - Lasts three innings Sunday Bratt did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing three runs on three hits and three walks over three innings against the Dodgers. He did not record a strikeout.

Impact Bratt was greeted by a Shohei Ohtani leadoff homer in the first inning before surrendering two more runs on a Tommy Edman single in the third frame. The rookie southpaw was lifted after throwing 58 pitches, only 29 of which were strikes, as he struggled to find the strike zone consistently. Through his first two big-league appearances, Bratt has allowed four runs on five hits with a 3:5 K:BB across six innings. It remains to be seen whether the 23-year-old will receive an extended opportunity in the starting rotation after the All-Star break with Zac Gallen (elbow) on the injured list.

Max Kepler - Idle Sunday Kepler is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Impact Kepler will be held out of the lineup for the second time in the series while Arizona goes with Lourdes Gurriel in left field and Ketel Marte in the designated-hitter spot. Since serving an 80-game suspension and being cleared to make his Arizona debut June 25, Kepler has produced a .554 OPS across 38 plate appearances. Until he begins to improve his offensive output, Kepler could have to settle for a part-time role.

Tommy Troy - Sitting for series finale Troy (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Impact Ryan Waldschmidt will receive the start in center field while Arizona gives Troy some extended time to recover from the shoulder contusion he suffered during Saturday's 9-2 win. Manager Torey Lovullo said after the game that Troy wouldn't require imaging on his shoulder, so the rookie outfielder is expected to be good to go coming out of the All-Star break.

Mitch Bratt - Called up for Sunday's start The Diamondbacks recalled Bratt from Triple-A Reno to start Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Impact The left-hander is coming up to start in place of Zac Gallen (elbow), who was placed on the injured list Sunday. Bratt made his major-league debut versus the Cardinals in late June and allowed one run on two hits with three strikeouts and two walks over three innings. The 23-year-old has been an effective rotation piece at Triple-A this year with a 2.41 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 51:14 K:BB across 52.1 innings, and another quality showing Sunday could help him secure a longer look in the rotation.

Zac Gallen - Officially moved to IL The Diamondbacks placed Gallen (elbow) on the 15-day injured list Sunday.

Impact The right-hander was scratched from his scheduled start Sunday against the Dodgers due to elbow inflammation and will be out for at least the next couple weeks. The severity of the injury hasn't been disclosed, so it's unclear if Gallen will be ready to return when first eligible in late July. Mitch Bratt was called up to fill the open spot in the rotation Sunday.

Impact The 23-year-old is back in the lineup as expected Sunday after being hit by a pitch Friday and sitting out Saturday's contest. Waldschmidt was called up from Triple-A Reno on Thursday after spending a nearly a month in the minors. In his first taste of the majors this season, Waldschmidt has a .254/.309/.351 slash line with nine doubles, a triple, five steals, eight RBI and 11 runs in 34 games.
