How to Live Stream the Game

The game will be televised on NBCS Bay Area and Fox Sports Arizona at 9:45 p.m. ET. Further streams can be found on the MLB Streams subreddit.

The D-Backs enter this game coming off a big 8-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the last game of their three-game series. Pitcher Alex Young (0-0) will make his major league debut on Thursday night as he will audition for a spot in Arizona's rotation for the time being. Young has posted a 6.09 ERA with 64 strikeouts in 54.2 innings pitched at Triple-A this year.

Diamondbacks Lineup

Ketel Marte will be one to look out for in this one, as he's hit an absolutely scorching .517 with 6 homers and 7 runs batted in through his last 15 games.

Merrill Kelly, who returned this year from the NPB in Japan, will take the hill and look to build off his recent run of solid starts. Over his past five outings, he's surrendered more than 2 earned runs just once, and has struck out 32 batters across 33.2 innings of work.

Things could be looking up for Arizona after a series win against the division rival Dodgers.

Giants Lineup

On the side for the Giants, they've dropped six of their last 10 games played, including a series loss to the Colorado Rockies.

Sandoval could be a difference maker in this game, as he's posted a surprising .288 batting average with 10 homers and 28 runs batted in through 72 games.

The Giants offense on the year has been abysmal, as they've mustered just 3.8 runs per game in the first half of the year. Pitcher Tyler Beede (1-2) will attempt to secure a win despite the offensive woes. Beede has posted a rough 6.96 ERA in eight appearances this year, with a mediocre 38:25 K:BB ratio. He struggled in his last appearance against the D-Backs, allowing 4 runs in as many innings.

San Francisco has a good chance to break out of their struggles tonight with Arizona starting Young, but nothing is guaranteed.
