San Francisco Giants catcher Stephen Vogt went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 4-3 loss against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Drew Pomeranz allowed five hits and two walks with seven strikeouts over five scoreless innings in a no-decision on Saturday against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
