Durham solid for Giants in defeat

03/13/2006
Giants at the plate: Leadoff hitter Abraham Nunez singled to start the game and added a double in the fifth off Jose Valverde. The lone Giants regular in the lineup -- Ray Durham -- got two of the Giants' first three hits and also stole a base. Daniel Ortmeier got the Giants on the board with a sacrifice fly in the sixth that scored Lance Niekro.
Diamondbacks at the plate: Jeff DaVanon walked three times in the leadoff spot. Tony Clark hit his second homer of the spring, a solo shot in the third inning off Giants starter Matt Kinney. Clark added a two-run single to left in his next at-bat.
Giants on the mound: Kinney struggled a bit with his control, as he walked three Diamondbacks and left trailing 4-0. Pedro Liriano did not fare much better, as he allowed three runs in his one inning of work.
Diamondbacks on the mound: Claudio Vargas, competing for the No. 5 spot in the rotation, kept the ball down and did not allow a run over four innings. Vargas pitched out of a jam in the second, striking out Kinney.
Cactus League records: Giants 6-5; Diamondbacks 10-3.
Up next: The Giants will return to the friendly confines of Scottsdale Stadium on Tuesday to take on the Rangers at 12:05 p.m. PT. Matt Morris will get the starting nod for San Francisco against right-hander John Danks.
The Diamondbacks will face off against the White Sox on Tuesday at Tucson Electric Park, with Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez starting against Brandon McCarthy at 1:05 p.m. MST. Luis Vizcaino, acquired with Hernandez from the White Sox in the Javier Vazquez deal, will also see action.
