The Arizona Diamondbacks faced a heartbreaking end to their postseason hopes as they were eliminated after the Atlanta Braves secured a 3-0 victory over the New York Mets. Arizona needed the Mets to win both games in a doubleheader to keep their playoff chances alive, but the Mets only managed to win the first game 8-7.

With both teams already clinching their postseason spots, the Mets struggled offensively in the second game, failing to score. The Braves capitalized on a couple of key plays to secure their win, leaving the Diamondbacks with a strong but ultimately insufficient 89-73 record for the season.
