Left-hander Logan Allen took over for Nelson and pitched well, giving up just one run in 4⅔ innings. The Giants added four runs in the eighth, taking advantage of an error by second baseman Ketel Marte, the kind of defensive mistake that has been more commonplace this season than manager Torey Lovullo would like.

Diamondbacks hitters went three-up, three-down in seven innings on Thursday as they dropped the series opener to the Giants.

The Diamondbacks lost to the Giants 5-0, getting shut out for first time this season. They may have lost more than just the game however. Ryne Nelson was hit on the arm in the second inning by a comebacker from Mike Yastrzemski.
