Arizona is one game in front of the Chicago Cubs for the second of three National League wild-card berths.
The Giants have lost five of their past six, fell to 76-76 for the season, and are 3 1/2 games back for the final playoff spot with 10 games remaining. Arizona’s four-run seventh put the game out of reach. Carroll and Ketel Marte led off with back-to-back homers off reliever Ryan Walker, extending Arizona’s lead to 5-1. Gabriel Moreno and Emmanuel Rivera added RBI singles to push the margin to 7-1.
"It’s a lot of players putting the bat down, handing off to the brother behind them," Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said. "Conceptually, we’re talking about connecting everything, staying connected at all times through nine innings, and it shows up like this."
