Diamondbacks 7, Giants 3:
Gerardo Parra went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer while Paul Goldschmidt also went deep and drove in four as visiting Arizona evened its three-game set with San Francisco.

Parra crossed the plate three times and Martin Prado scored twice for the Diamondbacks. Bronson Arroyo (1-0) allowed three runs and six hits over five frames in his second straight start against the Giants before giving way to Josh Collmenter, who yielded three hits and a walk over the final four innings to log his first career save.

Tim Lincecum (0-1), who opposed Arroyo for the second time in as many outings, was tagged for seven runs over four innings. Michael Morse and Buster Posey each delivered a solo shot as San Francisco lost for only the second time in seven contests.

After Parra led off the game with a triple and Prado walked, Goldschmidt drove a 1-1 fastball the opposite way and into the right-field seats. Morse trimmed the deficit on the first pitch of the bottom of the second inning on a deep blast to left-center before Goldschmidt and Eric Chavez added a sacrifice fly and RBI triple, respectively, to increase Arizona’s advantage to 5-1 in the third.

Hunter Pence plated Pablo Sandoval with an RBI groundout in the bottom half, but the Diamondbacks responded again in the fourth when Parra followed Arroyo’s two-out single with his first home run of the season just over the right-field wall. Posey countered with a line-drive shot off Arroyo in the fifth, but the Giants could not find any more offense thereafter off Collmenter.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Goldschmidt, who improved to 13-for-26 all-time against Lincecum, posted his seventh career homer off the right-hander – more than twice as many as he has against any other pitcher (Chris Capuano, three). … Giants 1B Brandon Belt, who became the first Giant since 2003 to hit five home runs in the first eight games in Tuesday’s series-opening win, singled in five at-bats. … The Diamondbacks went 2-for-8 with runners in scoring position Wednesday, improving their season mark in such situations to 18-for-93.
