LOUIS — Corbin Carroll continues to make hitting triples look easy, turning one of baseball’s hardest offensive feats into a regular part of his game.Jul 6, 2026; San Diego, California, USA; Arizona Diamondbacks right fielder Corbin Carroll (7) doubles in the third inning against the San Diego Padres at Petco Park. Mandatory Credit: Chadd Cady-Imagn ImagesThe Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder recorded his 12th triple of the season Thursday against the St. Louis Cardinals and his second in back-to-back games, bringing his career total to 55. It ties Starling Marte and Mike Trout for the most triples among active MLB players.What makes the milestone even more remarkable is how quickly the Arizona All-Star reached it.Carroll reached 55 career triples in just 587 games. By comparison, Marte and Trout each needed more than 1,500 games to reach that same total. The feat further establishes the 25-year-old Diamondbacks outfielder as one of the game’s premier extra-base threats, combining elite contact, speed and power.Carroll’s pace doesn’t just stand out among active players — it also puts him alongside one of baseball’s greatest legends.Jul 23, 2026; St. Louis, Missouri, USA; Arizona Diamondbacks right fielder Corbin Carroll (7) hits a one run sacrifice fly against the St. Louis Cardinals during the eighth inning at Busch Stadium.

Triples have become far less common because of modern defensive alignments and the emphasis on hitting home runs. Carroll has challenged that trend, using his speed to stretch hits into triples while also providing the power to leave the yard.May 24, 2026; Phoenix, Arizona, USA; Arizona Diamondbacks right fielder Corbin Carroll (7) records his 50th career triple against the Colorado Rockies in the first inning at Chase Field.
