Diamondbacks snap a 4-game losing streak with a 4-2 victory over the Giants
PHOENIX (AP) --- Alek Thomas went 3 for 3 with two runs scored, Ryne Nelson
struck out seven in 6 2/3 innings and the Arizona Diamondbacks snapped a
four-game losing streak with a 4-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants on
Monday night.
One pitch after Nelson was pulled in the seventh after exceeding his pitch
count, Tyler Fitzgerald sent a shot to the warning track in center --- just
past a diving Thomas --- to score two runs and tie it at 2.
The Diamondbacks answered with a run in the seventh on Geraldo Perdomo's bloop
single to score Thomas.
A controversial call for fan interference came in the top of the eighth on
Christian Koss' deep shot to left-center field, resulting in a ground-rule
double. John Curtiss struck out Rafael Devers and Shelby Miller came in to get
Heliot Ramos looking.
Eugenio Suarez added a solo shot in the eighth --- his 11th home run in June.
The Giants have lost three in a row.
Nelson allowed two earned runs and five hits, while not giving up a walk.
Curtiss (1-0) got his first win of the season and Miller earned his first
career four-out save. Diamondbacks pitchers combined to hold the 1-2-3 hitters
to 1 for 12 with seven strikeouts.
San Francisco stater Logan Webb (7-6) allowed three earned runs and seven hits,
while striking out seven in 6 1/3 innings.
Key moment San Francisco manager Bob Melvin was ejected in the ninth inning after arguing with the home plate umpire. Key stat Webb allowed just his seventh home run of the season when Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit his 11th in the sixth for a 2-0 lead. Up next Arizona will start RHP Zac Gallen (5-9, 5.75 ERA) on Tuesday night against the Giants, who he has beaten twice in a row with a 0.75 ERA. San Francisco will go with RHP Hayden Birdsong (0-0, 4.13 ERA). ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb |
