Alek Thomas went 3-for-3 with a home run, four runs scored, a walk, and a steal in the Diamondbacks’ 10-3 win over the Mariners on Tuesday.
Thomas drew a walk in the third and scored Arizona’s first run on a triple by Corbin Carroll. He then singled and scored in the fifth and sixth innings while collecting a steal before slugging a solo homer to lead off the eighth. The 25-year-old outfielder is hitting .273/.315/.395 with three homers, 21 runs scored, 19 RBI, and four steals across 185 plate appearances.
Gabriel Moreno went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer against the Mariners on Tuesday.
Moreno’s only hit of the game brought three runs in as he took Trent Thornton deep in the sixth inning. It was the fifth home run of the season for Moreno, tying his total from last season in half the plate appearances. The 25-year-old backstop has hit the ball hard with more consistency this year, significantly raising his hard-hit rate. Moreno is slashing .277/.333/.428 with the five homers, 28 runs scored, and 20 RBI across 180 plate appearances.
Lourdes Gurriel Jr. went 2-for-4 with a home run and two runs scored against the Mariners on Tuesday.
Gurriel took Logan Evans deep for a solo homer in the fourth inning, then singled to lead off the sixth before stealing second and scoring on a home run by Gabriel Moreno. The 31-year-old outfielder is having another solid all-around season in Arizona, hitting .258/.304/.446 with ten homers, 37 RBI, and four steals across 263 plate appearances.
Rowdy Tellez went 2-for-5 with a solo homer against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.
Tellez had singled to lead off the second inning, then later took Brandon Pfaadt deep for a solo homer in the sixth, going back-to-back with Randy Arozarena to knock Pfaadt from the game. The 30-year-old slugger is hitting .208/.253/.429 with ten homers and 26 RBI across 166 plate appearances.
Randy Arozarena went 1-for-4 with a solo homer against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.
Arozarena’s only hit of the game put the Mariners on the board for their first run in the sixth as he led off the inning with a solo homer off Brandon Pfaadt. The 30-year-old outfielder has been hot the dish with three straight multi-hit games before Tuesday’s contest. He’s batting .232/.346/.401 with eight homers, 26 runs scored, 27 RBI, and 11 steals across 280 plate appearances.
Brandon Pfaadt allowed two runs with four strikeouts over five innings in a win over the Mariners on Tuesday.
Had had worked around traffic throughout the game but managed to hold the Mariners scoreless through five innings until Randy Arozarena and Rowdy Tellez took him deep with back-to-back solo homers in the sixth. That would be it for Pfaadt, who scattered nine hits and one walk while striking out four. The 26-year-old right-hander will take a 5.50 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, and a 55/18 K/BB ratio across 70 1/3 innings into a start against the Blue Jays in Toronto next Tuesday.
