Arizona Diamondbacks welcome the New York Yankees in the first set of clashes of their three-match series with both sides looking to start off on a high.
Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the Colorado Rockies thrice in four meetings in their opening set of series. The Diamondbacks scored 16 runs in their opening encounter giving the Rookies no scope for a revival throughout the four games as they look to continue their domination in the NL West Standings.
New York Yankees, on the other hand, had a swashbuckling start to their MLB campaign as they dismantled Houston Astros in all four games scoring 22 runs and conceding just 11 in some scintillating showing of heroics.
