On April 27, 2006, in San Diego, California, the Arizona Diamondbacks and the San Diego Padres faced off in a baseball game. The Arizona Diamondbacks made some roster moves, recalling catcher Adrian Del Castillo from Triple-A Reno and designating outfielder Jesús Sánchez for assignment. Del Castillo's return is due to Gabriel Moreno being limited to DH duties after sustaining a hamstring injury in yesterday's game.
Moreno's batting performance has been impressive, as he has hit .329 over a 93-game span, moving him ahead of José Arraez in the race for the batting title. If Moreno continues his current performance, he could win the title by a narrow margin. Meanwhile, the focus of the game was on the bullpens for both teams, as the Phillies' magic number was two, requiring a win and a Diamondbacks' loss to clinch their championship.
