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. Cecconi started in place of an injured Merrill Kelly to help the Diamondbacks earn a split of the four-game series.

“It was not an easy day,” Lovullo said. “You wake up and get the news on Merrill. It takes a toll on the team. And then what Slade did just kind of gave us a chance to catch our breath, and we won a big game.” Melvin’s ejection was his second this season. 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.
Giants starter Jordan Hicks allowed one run and one hit in five innings. He kept the Giants in the game despite walking four and hitting two batters. Hicks did not have a strikeout and allowed a run on Jake McCarthy’s sacrifice fly in the second inning.
