Lourdes Gurriel Jr., Geraldo Perdomo and Blaze Alexander each homered on Saturday night to propel the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 10-1 victory over the visiting Cincinnati Reds.
Gurriel and Perdomo both drove in three runs apiece, while Alexander went 3-for-4 for Arizona, which won its fourth straight game. After Jalen Beeks threw a clean first inning as the Diamondbacks' opener, Nabil Crismatt (1-0) hurled four scoreless innings, allowing four hits, while striking out four and walking three. Jake Woodford earned a four-inning save for Arizona -- his first of the year -- allowing a run on three hits while striking out a batter.
Andrew Abbott (8-4) struggled for the Reds, allowing seven runs (six earned) on eight hits in four innings, striking out six and walking none. Austin Hays went 2-for-4 with an RBI for Cincinnati, which lost its third straight game and fell 2 1/2 games behind the New York Mets for the final National League Wild Card spot.
Arizona struck in the first inning, as Corbin Carroll's two-out double was followed by Gurriel's run-scoring single. Gabriel Moreno and Alexander then each slashed RBI doubles to push the Diamondbacks' advantage to 3-0.
Perdomo reached in the third on Cincinnati shortstop Elly De La Cruz's throwing error, before scoring on Gurriel's 18th homer of the season -- a 392-foot shot -- to extend Arizona's lead to 5-0.
The Diamondbacks tacked two more in the fourth off Abbott, with Ketel Marte's two-out single and Perdomo's 14th homer of the year giving Arizona a 7-0 edge.
Making his major league debut, Zach Maxwell replaced Abbott in the fifth, retiring the first two batters he faced before allowing Alexander's fifth home run of the season. Maxwell struck out five over two innings.
Marte drove in the Diamondbacks' ninth run in the bottom of the eighth with an RBI single to left, before Perdomo added on with another run-scoring base hit off Reds reliever Brent Suter.
Arizona sits three games behind the Reds and 5 1/2 back of the third and final Wild Card spot.
