The Arizona Diamondbacks ended their skid with a 5-4 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Monday night. They now have a chance to take their first (official) series victory since taking two of three from the Los Angeles Angels on June 17. The D-backs have won seven straight to open the 2026 season against the Giants, the first time they have done so against any opponent. As expected, right-hander Brandon Pfaadt has been recalled from Triple-A Reno, and will make his first start back in the D-backs' rotation since April 11. Below is what Arizona's lineup for their game two matchup against San Francisco will look like:Diamondbacks reveal lineup for game two vs GiantsJun 23, 2026; St. Louis, Missouri, USA; Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Nolan Arenado (28) is congratulated by shortstop Geraldo Perdomo (2) after scoring against the St. Louis Cardinals during the ninth inning at Busch Stadium.

Similarly, Geraldo Perdomo — who was once the D-backs' most reliable RISP producer — was able to come through with the big knock, clearing the bases with a double in the fifth inning. This lineup is, otherwise, a relatively standard one. Max Kepler makes yet another start in left field, still in search of his first base hit as a member of the Diamondbacks despite hitting several balls quite hard. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. remains in the DH slot, and Pavin Smith will hit eighth against a right-handed pitcher.Smith needs to start producing. He was once one of the D-backs' most dangerous hitters facing righty pitchers, but has hit to a mere .481 OPS with one home run so far in the 2026 season. He's been injured, yes, but the at-bat quality has not looked as positive as it has in the past.Brandon Pfaadt makes return to rotationJun 3, 2026; Phoenix, Arizona, USA; Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Brandon Pfaadt in the seventh inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Chase Field.

Arizona's attempt to convert him to a bullpen role did not go smoothly, and he was subsequently optioned to Reno to get stretched back out as a starting pitcher.For his career, Pfaadt has an 0-4 record against the Giants, but has pitched well overall, with a 3.63 ERA in seven appearances. He famously threw a nine-inning one-hit shutout against San Francisco on September 17, 2025, but was not able to earn his team the win, as lackluster offense spelled an extra-inning loss.
