Ketel Marte went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer to lead the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 5-4 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday night at Phoenix.
Nolan Arenado had a two-run double and Geraldo Perdomo contributed two hits and an RBI for the Diamondbacks, who won for the sixth time in seven games. Ryan Waldschmidt had two hits and scored once as Arizona improved to 2-1 in the four-game set that concludes Sunday.
TJ Rumfield went 3-for-4 with a homer for the Rockies, who lost for the 10th time in 14 games. Troy Johnston had two hits and an RBI and Hunter Goodman also had two hits for Colorado.
Arizona's Paul Sewald recorded two outs on fly balls in the ninth before striking out Goodman for his 12th save in 13 opportunities.
Arizona's Zac Gallen (3-4) gave up three runs and six hits over 5 1/3 innings. He struck out six and walked two.
Colorado's Michael Lorenzen (2-7) was touched up for five runs and eight hits over five innings. He fanned five and issued one walk.
The Rockies pulled within 5-4 when Rumfield smacked a 2-0 sinker from Brandon Pfaadt over the wall in left-center field leading off the eighth.
Tyler Freeman followed with a single and Pfaadt was replaced by Kevin Ginkel. Johnston walked but Colorado's threat took a big hit when Ezequiel Tovar's sacrifice bunt attempt was fielded by Ildemaro Vargas and the first baseman's throw forced Freeman at third.
Sterlin Thompson grounded out to move the runners to second and third before Ginkel retired Chad Stevens on a fly to center.
Arizona jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the third inning on an RBI single by Perdomo and the two-run double by Arenado.
The Rockies loaded the bases with none out in the fourth. Johnson's single plated one run and Tovar's fielder's choice drove in another.
In the bottom of the fourth, Tim Tawa was on first with two out when Marte slammed a first-pitch fastball 424 feet over the fence in right to give the Diamondbacks a 5-2 lead.
Colorado pushed across a run in the sixth as Johnston singled, stole second, moved to third on Tovar's grounder and scored on Thompson's grounder.
