Corbin Carroll, Ketel Marte slug Diamondbacks past Braves
June 4 - Ketel Marte and Corbin Carroll both hit a pair of home runs and starting pitcher Zac Gallen pitched seven strong innings to help the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Atlanta Braves 8-3 on Tuesday in the opener of their three-game series. Arizona evened the season series at 2-2 and has won two straight. Marte went 3-for-3 with two walks, three RBIs and lifted his batting average to .294. He clubbed a 445-foot homer into the seats in right field in the first inning and hit a two-run line drive shot into right field in the fourth, both off Atlanta starter Spencer Strider, and has 10 homers. Marte has reached base safely in a season-best 16 games, a streak that includes seven homers and 10 RBIs. Carroll went 3-for-4 with four RBIs and three runs scored. He connected in the fifth inning on a two-run shot that carried 438 feet to right field, and put the game away with a 416-foot three-run homer with two outs in the ninth. He has a team-leading 18 homers. Zac Gallen (4-7) ended a three-game losing streak and won his first game since April 6. He allowed three runs -- only one earned -- on four hits, one walk and three strikeouts. Gallen retired the first 10 batters he faced before rookie Drake Baldwin got the first Atlanta hit, a solo homer to right field, his sixth. Shelby Miller pitched the eighth inning and Ryan Thompson closed the game with a perfect ninth. Strider (0-4) pitched five innings and allowed five runs on six hits -- three of them home runs -- two walks and four strikeouts. The Braves scored three times in the fourth inning. After Baldwin's homer, Matt Olson singled and scored from first when Marcell Ozuna's grounder went under the glove of third baseman Eugenio Suarez. Ozuna, who took second on the throw, scored on an opposite-field single by Ozzie Albies. --Field Level Media

Ketel Marte and Corbin Carroll's home runs power Diamondbacks to 8-3 win over Braves
ATLANTA (AP) — Ketel Marte and Corbin Carroll each homered twice and the Arizona Diamondbacks snapped a five-game road losing streak with an 8-3 win over the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night. Zac Gallen (4-7), who had struggled with an 8.02 ERA in his last four starts, surrendered just one earned run in seven innings. He gave up four hits, struck out four and retired the first 10 batters of the game. Marte was 3 for 3 with 3 RBIs and two walks and Corbin Carroll was 3 for 4 with four RBIs and three runs scored. Carroll now has 18 home runs on the season. Spencer Strider (0-4) surrendered three home runs while his ERA climbed to 5.68 for the season after giving up five runs on six hits in five innings. Marte hit his first home run 445 feet into the right field seats in the first inning. Carroll's second home run was a three-run shot in the ninth inning that put the game out of reach. Braves rookie catcher Drake Baldwin hit his sixth home run and threw two runners out in the seventh inning, catching Carroll stealing and picking Marte off first. Baldwin was named the NL's rookie of the month in May. The Braves have lost nine of their last 12. Key moment With two outs and two Atlanta runners on in the eighth inning and Arizona leading 5-3, Diamondbacks center fielder Alek Thomas made a running catch just in front of the wall in center to take a potential game-tying hit away from Marcell Ozuna. Key stat Strider has given up at least one home run in 11 of his last 14 starts (including playoffs), dating to the 2023 season. He has surrendered five in 19 innings this season. Up next Diamondbacks RHP Merrill Kelly (5-2, 3.78 ERA) will face reigning NL Cy Young winner Chris Sale (3-3, 3.06) in the second game of the three-game set on Wednesday. ___ AP MLB:

Diamondbacks beat Nationals 3-1 but lose starting pitcher Corbin Burnes to injury
PHOENIX (AP) — Eugenio Suárez homered to cap Arizona's three-run first inning in a 3-1 victory over the Washington Nationals 3-1 on Sunday, but the Diamondbacks lost starting pitcher Corbin Burnes to an injury. Burnes, who had three of his six strikeouts in the first inning, left with two outs and CJ Abrams on base in the fifth after throwing his 70th pitch. He motioned to the dugout and appeared to mouth, 'My elbow,' to a teammate before walking off the field with a 3-0 lead. The Diamondbacks, who snapped a four-game skid despite not getting a hit after the first inning, staked Burnes to the lead when Ketel Marte hit a leadoff single against Mitchell Parker (4-5) and took second on a flyout. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. doubled to score Marte and Suárez followed with his 15th homer — a 466-foot shot to center. The blast tied Suárez with the Phillies' Kyle Schwarber for the fifth longest this season. The Angels' Mike Trout leads with a 484-footer against the Giants on April 19. It turned out it was Arizona's final hit. Jalen Beeks replaced Burnes in the fifth and gave up an RBI single to Nathaniel Lowe before striking out Luis García Jr. to end it. Cristian Mena (1-0) was recalled from Triple-A Reno before the game and pitched two scoreless innings for his first win in his third career appearance. Justin Martinez pitched a perfect ninth for his fourth save. The Nationals had their four-game win streak stopped — one short of their season high. Key moment Arizona will monitor the status of Burnes, who was signed to a six-year deal worth $210 million before the season to anchor the staff. Key stat Burnes didn't get his first win until his sixth start when he beat the Mets on April 30. But he went 2-1 in four May starts with a 1.67 ERA. Up next RHP Trevor Williams (3-5, 5.69) starts Tuesday as the Nationals begin a six-game homestand with three against the Cubs, who will send out RHP Cade Horton (2-0, 3.98) for his fourth career start. The Diamondbacks will start RHP Zac Gallen (3-7, 5.54) on Tuesday against Braves, who will start RHP Spencer Strider (0-3, 4.50). ___ AP MLB:
