The D-backs season in numbers
- Record
- 86-76
- Division
- 3 of 5
- Run diff.
- +9
- Expected wins
- 82
- Home
- 45-36
- Road
- 41-40
Across 162 games the D-backs scored 739 times and allowed 730 runs, a run differential of +9. That works out to 4.56 runs scored and 4.51 allowed per game, against a league average of 4.48 for each side. Based on those runs, a typical team would have won about 82 games, so the D-backs finished 4 wins above that mark. That is close enough to say the D-backs record reflects how well they actually played.
At home the D-backs went 45-36, on the road 41-40. The D-backs home and road records sit close together, which is normal for an MLB club. Against left-handed starters they were 28-13, against right-handers 58-63, and they closed the regular season 6-4 over the last ten games, ending on a 2-game losing streak.
Recent form: the last 10 games
In their last 10 regular-season games the D-backs went 6-4, scoring 6.4 and allowing 5.6 runs per game. 7 of those 10 games finished above 9 total runs, 1 was decided by a single run, and the widest margin was 11-4 away at SD. The chart plots each of those D-backs games, runs scored above the line and runs allowed below it.

How to read the D-backs numbers
Reading these D-backs numbers before a game: the run differential and expected wins say more about team quality than the raw record, the home and road split shows how much Chase Field helps, and the last-ten totals show whether recent D-backs games have run high or low. For D-backs totals, the over/under guide explains the market step by step, and the odds calculator turns any price into an implied probability. None of these D-backs figures predicts a single game, and no bet is ever a sure thing.
Chase Field, home of the D-backs

The Arizona Diamondbacks play their home games at Chase Field in Phoenix, AZ, a ballpark with a retractable roof, at an elevation of 1,086 feet. Games there averaged 8.82 total runs, an index of 0.98 against the league average, close to neutral. When the Chase Field roof is open, wind and temperature come back into play. The ballpark scoring page ranks all 30 parks.
