7-0 Against the Giants? Nobody Saw the Diamondbacks Doing THIS
Alright, fam, listen up! The Arizona Diamondbacks just keep laying it on the San Francisco Giants, snagging a 5-4 win Monday night in Phoenix to kick off their three-game series. And get this: they're now 7-0 against those guys this season! Seven-and-zero! If you didn't see that kind of dominance coming, you're not alone, but it is HAPPENING. Geraldo Perdomo was the man of the hour, smashing a bases-clearing double in the fifth inning that basically decided the whole thing. What a statement!D-Backs Offense Says "Hello, Goodbye!"
Seriously, the D-backs offense was dialed in, even coming off three straight losses in Tampa Bay. Ketel Marte decided to announce his presence with authority, crushing his 16th homer of the season on just the second pitch of the game off Giants starter Tyler Mahle. Talk about a tone-setter! San Francisco tried to claw back in the fifth with a Jonah Cox squeeze bunt, but that D-backs lineup wasn't having it. Arenado walked, Tommy Troy singled, then Marte walked again to load 'em up. That's when Perdomo stepped to the plate and delivered the goods, a massive shot to the left-field fence that cleared the bases. Just like that, it was 4-1. Mahle was cooked, charged with four runs in 4 1/3 innings. Nolan Arenado then put an exclamation point on it in the sixth, launching his ninth home run of the year against JT Brubaker, their third pTrade on Every Game with Kalshi

itcher. Turns out, that was a crucial insurance run, and we love seeing those.Eduardo Rodriguez Shuts 'Em Down, But The Giants Wouldn't Quit
Eduardo Rodriguez was absolutely dealing for the D-backs, grabbing his second win against the Giants this season. The dude went seven strong innings, giving up just one run on five hits, striking out one, and not walking a single batter. You love to see a pitcher in control like that! But man, the Giants really tried to make it interesting. Casey Schmitt hit a sac fly in the eighth to make it 5-2, then Heliot Ramos blasted his fifth homer of the season to lead off the ninth. Drew Cavanaugh, in only his third career game, picked up his first career RBI with a single to cut the lead to one! Seriously, my heart was racing. With the tying run on first, Paul Sewald, the D-backs closer, had to shut the door. He did, getting Drew Gilbert to foul out and Matt Chapman to pop out, securing his 19th save. The D-backs even won despite being out-hit 9-6, with Arenado adding a single to his monster homer. So, the D-backs have officially opened this three-game set with a win, continuing their absolute domination over the Giants. San Francisco, who had won two in a row before this, really needs to figure out how to beat these guys. The series continues, and you know the Giants will be itching to break this 7-0 curse. Let's see if Arizona can keep the pressure on. You don't want to miss what happens next!This article was created with AI assistance and reviewed by Seattle On Tap editorial staff.
