Diamondbacks Beat Giants 8-2 as Marte Homers in Fourth Straight Game

The Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the San Francisco Giants 8-2 on Tuesday night in Phoenix. Ketel Marte homered in his fourth consecutive game and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit a three-run homer in the first inning.

Arizona improved to 8-0 against San Francisco this season, with five wins in Phoenix and three in San Francisco. Gurriel's homer, his second of the year, barely cleared the left-center fence one pitch after he successfully challenged a strike call. Jorge Barrosa walked with the bases loaded in the third inning and Marte followed with a two-run single to make the score 6-0.

Landon Roupp allowed six runs on five hits and walked six over 2 2/3 innings for the Giants. Brandon Pfaadt returned to the Diamondbacks rotation after time in Triple-A and gave up one run on three hits over 5 1/3 innings in his first start since April 11.

Luis Arraez and Rafael Devers each hit solo home runs for San Francisco. Arraez collected three of the Giants' four hits and fell a double short of the cycle. Arizona is scheduled to start Zac Gallen against Trevor McDonald on July 1.
