PHOENIX (AP) — Ketel Marte hit a two-run homer and scored twice in the Arizona Diamondbacks' 5-4 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday night.
Nolan Arenado had a two-run double and Marte finished with three of Arizona's 11 hits. Zac Gallen (3-4) gave up three runs and six hits in 5 1/3 innings. He struck out six and walked two.
Kevin Ginkel worked a hitless inning before Paul Sewald pitched a 1-2-3 ninth for his 12th save.
Arizona has won seven of its last nine games.
TJ Rumfield hit a solo homer and had three hits for Colorado.
Geraldo Perdomo opened the scoring with an RBI single in the third, and Arenado's double made it 3-0. After the Rockies scored twice in the fourth, Marte hit his eighth home run to right field in the bottom half to extend the lead to 5-2.
