San Francisco has gone 4-2 in Arizona this season compared to a 2-5 home record against the Diamondbacks. The Giants have a 3-1-1 series record at Chase Field since last season after losing all three series in Arizona in 2017.

Despite scoring five runs in the eighth inning yesterday, the Giants lost, 9-5, to the Athletics to split a brief two-game set. San Francisco has a -103 run differential in the first six innings this season, second worst in the NL (Miami, -108), but a +43 run differential in the seventh inning and later, second best in the NL (Dodgers, +56).

Arizona took two of three in Colorado, improving to 61-60 (.508) this season. The Diamondbacks have spent 83 days within one game of .500 this season, by far the most in MLB -- the Rangers rank second with 60 days.

The Giants recalled Dereck Rodriguez to make the start tonight, his first start since allowing seven runs (four earned) in three innings at Philadelphia on August 1. Rodriguez has a 5.32 ERA this season after posting a 2.81 ERA last year; that +2.51 difference is the fourth-largest increase in the NL this season (min. 50 innings each season).

Ketel Marte went 4-for-5 with two doubles in Wednesday's loss to the Rockies, his second 4-hit game this season. He is hitting .320 with 27 doubles and 24 home runs this season; with one more home run, he could become the seventh player in club history to hit .300+ with 25+ doubles and 25+ home runs and the first since Paul Goldschmidt in 2015.

Buster Posey has a .332 career average at Chase Field, third highest among active players with at least 150 PA at the venue. Only J.D. Martinez (.338) and teammate Pablo Sandoval (.335) have a higher career average at Chase Field.

HP - Vanover, 1B - Marquez, 2B - Rackley, 3B - Rehak

The Arizona Diamondbacks, still trying to do more than run in place, return home Thursday for the start of a four-game series against the San Francisco Giants, a fellow chaser in the National League wild-card race.
Arizona goes into the set in Phoenix coming off a 7-6 walk-off loss at Colorado on Wednesday, failing in a bid to get to three games over .500 for the first time since mid-June. Nolan Arenado's two-run homer off recently installed closer Archie Bradley sunk the D-backs in the ninth inning.

Giants, D-backs kick off critical 4-game series

PHOENIX (AP)  On his fourth trip to the majors this season, Dereck Rodriguez looked like a pitcher who plans to stay.
Rodriguez pitched seven innings of three-hit ball after being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento earlier Thursday, Evan Longoria had a 412-foot homer among his three hits and four RBIs, and the San Francisco Giants beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-0.
