Ketel Marte's comeback begins amid boos at Chase Field
Ketel Marte returned to the Diamondbacks at Chase Field to loud boos from home fans, signaling a fraught new chapter in his Arizona tenure. He held a translator-assisted press conference before the game addressing a past AWOL incident, saying he regrets not showing up at Fenway Park and expressing sympathy for manager Torey Lovullo, while offering no direct message to the fans. Lovullo defended him, noting Marte's mercurial but elite talent, and the scene underscores the franchise’s challenge of balancing accountability with star power as Arizona pursues a postseason push.
