PHOENIX — \u2014 Ketel Marte<\/a> doubled on the first pitch of the 10th inning to score automatic runner Jorge Barrosa<\/a> and the Arizona Diamondbacks<\/a> beat the Atlanta Braves<\/a> 6-5 on Sunday to split the four-game series.<\/p>\n

Taylor Rashi<\/a>, making his first appearance of the season, pitched a scoreless 10th for his victory in the majors. He was helped by shortstop Geraldo Perdomo<\/a>, who made a backhanded stop on a sharp grounder while playing in and threw out Mauricio Dub\u00f3n for the second out to keep the automatic runner at third.<\/p>\n

Marte greeted Joel Payamps<\/a> (0-1) with a line-drive double over the head of right-fielder Mike Yastrzemski<\/a> for the winner. There were five lead changes in the game.<\/p>\n

Corbin Carroll<\/a> had three hits, including a tiebreaking triple in the seventh, and Ildemaro Vargas<\/a> came off the bench to contribute a two-run triple for Arizona. He replaced first baseman Carlos Santana<\/a>, who left with right groin tightness after a second-inning single.<\/p>\n

Drake Baldwin<\/a> drove in three runs for Atlanta, including a tying single in the ninth against Jonathan Lo\u00e1isiga. Baldwin homered, his fourth of the season, off Diamondbacks starter Brandon Pfaadt<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Braves 3B Austin Riley<\/a>, mired in a 2-for-25 slump entering Sunday and still looking for his first homer of the season, was not in the starting lineup. He later pinch hit, stayed in the game and went 0 for 2.<\/p>\n

Up next <\/p>\n

The Braves begin a three-game road series against the Los Angeles Angels<\/a> on Monday with LHP Chris Sale<\/a> (2-0, 0.75) opposing Angels RHP Jos\u00e9 Soriano (2-0, 0.00). The Diamondbacks are off Monday before beginning a nine-game trip to the East Coast. RHP Zac Gallen<\/a> (1-1, 3.60) was scheduled to start for Arizona in New York on Tuesday against Mets RHP Freddy Peralta<\/a> (1-0, 4.35).<\/p>\n
