Zac Gallen pitched 6 2/3 scoreless innings, and Corbin Carroll drilled a two-run homer off reigning National League Cy Young Award winner Sandy Alcantara as the Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the host Miami Marlins 5-0 on Sunday afternoon.
Miami had its four-game win streak snapped. It was Miami's best stretch since winning six straight last year .
Carroll, a 22-year-old center fielder, was regarded as one of baseball's top prospects before making his major league debut this past August. He went 2-for-4 with two RBI and two runs on Sunday, including his 414-foot homer to center field. Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez, who entered the game leading the majors with a .511 batting average, went 0-for-4. The 2022 American League batting champ while playing for the Minnesota Twins is now hitting .471.
Arizona opened the scoring in the second. Carroll doubled on a liner that was originally ruled an error off the glove of left fielder Bryan De La Cruz. Carroll advanced on Jake McCarthy's deep fly to left center and scored on Alek Thomas' single up the middle.
