OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Geraldo Perdomo hit a two-run homer in the second inning and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. added a two-run shot in the third to back Merrill Kelly’s third straight win as the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Oakland Athletics 5-2. Arizona moved six games over .500 for the first time since finishing the 2019 season at 85-77. Ketel Marte singled in the fourth to extend his hitting streak to 16 games. Kelly struck out nine while pitching into the eighth inning and is unbeaten in four starts since a loss to San Diego on April 22.
