SAN FRANCISCO (AP) \u2014 Bryce Eldridge had four hits and drove in four runs and the San Francisco Giants beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-2 on Saturday night to split a doubleheader.<\/p>\n
Lars Nootbaar\u2019s pinch-hit grand slam in the seventh inning highlighted the Diamondbacks\u2019 7-1 victory in the opener.<\/p>\n
Arizona (73-65) is tied with the San Diego Padres for the NL\u2019s third wild-card spot.<\/p>\n
The Giants called up Yunior Marte from Double-A Richmond to make his debut in the majors as the starter in the second game. The right-hander allowed one run on three hits in 4-2\/3 innings with three strikeouts and two walks.<\/p>\n
The run Marte allowed came on Nootbaar\u2019s bloop double off the glove of left fielder Grant McCray to bring home Ildemaro Vargas with two outs in the third inning.<\/p>\n
That made it 1-1 and it stayed that way until the fifth. With runners at second and third with one out, Gerardo Carrillo replaced starter Mitch Bratt (1-3).<\/p>\n
Carrillo walked pinch-hitter Drew Gilbert before Rafael Devers singled home a run to give the Giants the lead. Eldridge followed with a two-run single to left-center to put San Francisco ahead 4-1.<\/p>\n
Eldridge had singled in Jonah Cox in the first inning for the game\u2019s first run.<\/p>\n
The Giants led 5-2 with two outs in the eighth before Devers and Eldridge each delivered a run-scoring single.<\/p>\n
Gilbert wound up walking three times and scoring three runs.<\/p>\n
Reiver Sanmartin struck out the only man he faced, Nootbaar, to end the fifth inning. Sanmartin (2-0) got the win.<\/p>\n
Arizona’s Tim Tawa doubled in the fourth inning to extend his on-base streak to 16 games.<\/p>\n
The Diamondbacks will host the Phillies on Monday. The Giants play a makeup game in Atlanta on Monday.<\/p>\n
