The Diamondbacks pulled off a gritty 8-7 win over the Pirates in extra innings, but the real story? Paul Sewald’s latest meltdown. Coming in with a six-run lead, he blew the save with a two-run homer and solo shot that tied the game — his third blown save this season. His ERA’s now 5.26, and his last six outings? Over 11.00. Manager Lovullo still backs him, but won’t commit to him for the next save. With playoffs looming and the race tightening, the team’s faith in Sewald is being tested — and the next few weeks could decide his future in the closer’s role.
