The lead
May 20, 2026 - Phoenix - The Arizona Diamondbacks completed a three-game sweep of the San Francisco Giants with a 6-3 win at Chase Field, as Ketel Marte homered for the second straight night and Geraldo Perdomo drove in three, per the Associated Press recap on CBS Sports.
Marte went 3-for-3 with a walk, scored three runs, and finished a triple shy of the cycle—one day after his walk-off three-run homer in the ninth on Tuesday. Arizona has won four straight and five of six.
How the game turned
Casey Schmitt homered in the first for a 1-0 Giants lead—his ninth of the season. Marte's two-run shot in the third put Arizona ahead 3-2.
The Diamondbacks broke it open in the fifth on Ildemaro Vargas's RBI groundout and Perdomo's two-run double down the right-field line for 6-3. Merrill Kelly (4-3) worked six innings on three runs and eight hits with four strikeouts—his third straight quality start after throwing his first career complete game last week, AP noted. Paul Sewald notched his 11th save.
Pitching and matchup notes
Tyler Mahle (1-6) allowed six runs on eight hits over five innings. San Francisco fell to 20-30 and has lost six of eight.
AthX Engine graded Marte at 13 hitting FP—tied for the daily hitting lead—and Arizona at 12 team FP.
Bats that changed the board
Rookies Jose Fernandez and Ryan Waldschmidt each added two singles as Arizona's lineup kept pressure on Mahle after Marte's third-inning flip.
AthX Engine fantasy angle
Back-to-back homer nights stack hitting FP fast—AthX Engine had Marte atop the board even without a cycle-clinching triple. Team totals still trailed Atlanta and Pittsburgh because Arizona's win was efficient, not explosive. Daily scoring differs from dynamic pricing.
What comes next
Arizona sends Eduardo Rodriguez against Colorado on Thursday; San Francisco is off before hosting Chicago (AL), per AP's probables.
