Diamondbacks Playoff Roster, Lineup, Pitching Matchup for Wild Card Game vs. Rockies

This is how the Diamondbacks will line up in Wednesday’s Wild Card Game against the Rockies.

The Diamondbacks have a chance to advance to their first NLDS since 2011 with a win over the Rockies in the National League Wild Card Game on Wednesday night. 

Arizona finished with a better record than its division rival and will have the privilege of hosting the game. With temperatures in the upper-90’s, the roof is expected to be closed, so it should be a raucous atmosphere in the desert. 

The D-Backs won the season series, 11–8, though the two teams split their most recent series, a four-game set in Arizona in mid-September. 

Arizona will be without three key contributors—Yasmany Tomas and Nick Ahmed—who have season ending injuries, and Chris Owings, who hasn’t played since fracturing his finger on July 30.
