The Diamondbacks opened strong with an early lead in the first inning, scoring one run on two hits. However, this initial momentum was short-lived as the Giants responded forcefully in their half of the inning with two runs on four hits. The fourth inning saw a brief resurgence from Arizona as they managed to add two more runs to their tally on another pair of hits. Despite these efforts and maintaining a clean defensive game without errors, they were unable to keep pace with San Francisco's offensive output.

Arizona's hitters struggled throughout most of the game, finishing with seven hits and only three runs scored. Their batting average stood at .212 for this matchup and an on-base percentage (OBP) of .257 reflected challenges in getting players on base consistently. The team left nine runners stranded (LOB), highlighting missed opportunities during crucial moments.

Onbase statistics showed that Arizona had seven hits including five singles and two doubles but failed to convert these into more runs due to only hitting .400 when runners were in scoring position (RISP). They also recorded one base-on-balls (BB) which contributed minimally towards advancing runners.

Pitching for Arizona proved challenging as well; their bullpen allowed two earned runs over three innings pitched (IP), resulting in an earned run average (ERA) of 6.00 for relievers. The starting pitcher didn't fare much better allowing five earned runs over five IP which translated into an ERA of 9.00 for starters during this game.

Defensively, while no errors were committed by Arizona fielders indicating solid play overall defensively speaking; however it wasn't enough to counteract San Francisco's hitters who amassed sixteen total hits including three doubles and two home runs contributing significantly towards their seven-run haul.
