SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Ketel Marte hit two home runs, Eugenio Suárez added a three-run shot and the Arizona Diamondbacks used 13 hits to hold on and outlast the San Francisco Giants 8-7 on Wednesday.
Marte took Jordan Hicks (1-5) deep to right with a solo shot in the first inning and launched a two-run homer off Hayden Birdsong in the fourth.
Suárez’s homer came off Birdsong with two men on in the third. It was Suárez’s 13th HR of the season — the third baseman had a four-homer game against Atlanta on April 26.
