Right-hander Slade Cecconi held the San Francisco Giants to two runs in six innings in his 2024 debut, and Gabriel Moreno hit a two-run, go-ahead single in the sixth inning to lead the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 5-3 victory Sunday.
Cecconi started in place of an injured Merrill Kelly to help the Diamondbacks earn a split of the four-game series. He was recalled from Triple-A Reno to make his fifth career start to replace Kelly, who was scratched with a shoulder injury.Most Diamondbacks came to the park unaware they would not be playing behind Kelly, the team’s No. 2 starter. Cecconi flew in from Reno on Saturday night and was not told he was starting until a few hours before the game.
Replays showed Kevin Newman appeared to swing over Nick Avila’s two-strike pitch. Scheurwater ruled the ball hit Newman’s bat. The ejections came after Newman, his at-bat extended, hit an RBI double."It’s an out right there, instead of a hit and a run," Melvin said. "It looked to me like it was fairly clear."Kevin Ginkel allowed Estrada’s RBI double with two outs in the ninth but struck out Yastrzemski for his fourth save of the season.
