Fifth Inning


The fifth inning saw another pivotal moment for Arizona when Lourdes Gurriel Jr., who had been consistent at bat with an average of .500 in previous games, contributed significantly by driving in another run for his team. This extended their lead and added pressure on their opponents.


On the other side of things during this same period, San Francisco responded through some strategic batting moves which allowed them one run off two hits; however they couldn't close down further opportunities due largely due excellent pitching from Merrill Kelly whose ERA stood impressively low at 1.286 across seven innings pitched so far this season - keeping opposing hitters guessing all night long!
