Big-time baseball is back at Chase Field and the suddenly surging Arizona Diamondbacks delivered in their first test.
Merrill Kelly threw seven strong innings, Lourdes Gurriel Jr. ripped a two-run double and the D-backs won their season-high sixth game in a row by beating the Atlanta Braves 3-2 on Friday night.
"I think there was a little extra zoom in everybody's behind today, knowing the Braves were in here," D-backs manager Torey Lovullo said. "We knew what was going on today and our guys stood tall in the middle of the ring.The Braves have lost five of their past seven. They threatened in the ninth when Sean Murphy led off the inning with an infield single. Travis D’Arnaud followed with a long fly ball to left that was caught by a leaping Gurriel near the wall for the first out.
Rosario hit solo homers in both the second and seventh innings, but that was pretty much it for the team's offense. It was his first multi-homer game of the season. Atlanta starter Charlie Morton was nearly as good, giving up three runs on six hits over seven innings. He walked three and struck out nine.
