The first-place Arizona Diamondbacks have given manager Torey Lovullo a contract extension through the 2024 season.

The deal, which was announced Sunday, is the third straight one-year extension for Lovullo.

A year after finishing in fourth place in the NL West and two years removed from a 110-loss season, the Diamondbacks enter play Sunday with a 35-24 mark to tie the Los Angeles Dodgers for the best record in the league.

It’s the first time Arizona has 35 wins through 59 games since 2007, when the team won the NL West with a 90-72 record and reached the National League championship series.

In the midst of his seventh season with the Diamondbacks, Lovullo is the longest-tenured manager in team history.

He led Arizona to the National League division series in 2017 in his first year as the team’s manager – and winning records each of the next two years – but the team has not finished better than fourth in the NL West each of the last three seasons.

During his time with the Diamondbacks, Lovullo has compiled a 446-483 record with one playoff appearance.
