San Francisco at Arizona 9:40 ET
Diamondbacks over Giants- Arizona expects to return to the postseason this year. But even after two straight wins against New York to halt a five-game slide, the Diamondbacks are five games below .500. San Francisco has dropped four straight games, with Sunday's 7-5 home loss to the New York Yankees proving especially painful. The Yankees scored four runs in the ninth against Giants closer Camilo Doval to leave San Francisco 2-4 on a six-game homestand. Right-hander Ryne Nelson (3-4, 6.02 ERA) will start Monday's series opener for the Diamondbacks. Nelson has lost two of his past three outings, including Wednesday's against the Rangers, as Texas roughed him up for four runs on five hits in six innings. Nelson is 1-0 with a 3.10 ERA in four career starts against the Giants. San Francisco hasn't announced a starter and is expected to go the bullpen route and tams win games. Take ARIZONA!
