Diamondbacks 4, Giants 3: The Silence of the 'Backs - but with a happy ending

It's probably not a good sign if your recapper finds himself looking up stats like "When was the last time the Diamondbacks were held without an extra-base hit in consecutive games?" The answer is more often than you would think. It has happened 18 different times in franchise history, most recently just last year. On June 5-6 last year, Arizona were held to a total of six singles in Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. However, the first of those was only a 7-inning game. The last time in regulation was May 7-8, 2021, when they had an impressive 18 hits against the Mets, but all were singles.
