SAN FRANCISCO — Yasmany Tomas’ fourth-inning home run proved to be the difference as the D-backs overcame a poor start from Shelby Miller to beat the Giants, 6-2, on Thursday afternoon and sweep the four-game series at AT&T Park. Arizona has now won 10 of 11 and 12 of 14 in San Francisco.

The D-backs built a 2-0 lead thanks to a pair of RBIs from Paul Goldschmidt in the first and third innings, but the Giants capitalized on Miller’s command struggles to score two runs in the third and tie the game.

Tomas untied it when he hit a 3-2 pitch from Johnny Cueto over the wall in left-center. Cueto (3-1) took the loss but pitched well in scattering eight hits over seven innings. The two RBI hits he allowed to Goldschmidt included a grounder down the line at third and a bloop single to right.
