Arizona finishes the year 40-41 in Phoenix with Sunday's 3-2 defeat.
Jack Thompson Associated Press PHOENIX — Pinch-hitter Evan Longoria had a go-ahead, two-run single in the eighth inning and the San Francisco Giants went on to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-2 on Sunday.
Camilo Doval pitched the ninth for his 26th save, giving up a run, a walk and a hit. He struck out rookie Corbin Carroll to end it, throwing one pitch at 104 mph to match his fastest of the season on Friday. Left-hander Scott Alexander opened for the Giants and gave up one hit in the first. Jarlin Garcia came in for the second and got five outs before giving way to Junis.
Giants second baseman Ford Proctor, recalled from Triple-A on Saturday, recorded his first big league hit Sunday, a sharp single to left in the seventh inning off Ginkel. “He understood. Bum’s a competitor, he wants to go out and work and help his team. He’s a good teammate. He understood the rationale.”
“It’s always a work in progress,” Lovullo said. “This will be Act 2 of his career. It wasn’t a good year, some adjustments need to be made. He will make those adjustments.”
