The Arizona Diamondbacks and the San Francisco Giants round out a four-game series Thursday afternoon at Oracle Park.
It looked like the Diamondbacks were in danger of being swept as they went into the eighth inning of last night's game trailing 1-2. However, the D-Backs strung together a few hits to score two and take a 3-2 victory. Now with Zac Gallen on the mound, they may be able to leave the Bay with a series split.
"THIS DEFENSE." - BALLYSPORTSAZ
Pitching in this one are Zac Gallen for the D-Backs and Logan Webb for the Giants.
Gallen has been absolutely incredible this season and utterly untouchable in his last five games. Gallen has allowed just four runs in his previous five starts, and he also has three shutouts in that stretch. He'll try to continue that magic today.
Webb has been solid for the Giants this season. While he has been dinged up a time or two, he's been consistent, almost matching his numbers from last year exactly.
