Geraldo Perdomo homered, Brandon Pfaadt won his National League-leading fifth game and the Arizona Diamondbacks avoided a three-game series sweep with a 6-4 victory over the Atlanta Braves in Phoenix on Sunday.

Josh Naylor had two doubles among his three hits along with two RBIs and Corbin Carroll had the first two-triple game of his career for the D-backs, who had lost four in a row and six of eight.

Pfaadt (5-1) gave up three runs (two earned) and nine hits in six-plus innings, leaving with a 4-2 lead three batters into the seventh inning after a season-high 100 pitches. He struck out six and walked one.

Pfaadt is tied with the New York Yankees’ Max Fried (5-0) for the major league lead in victories.

Alex Verdugo had four hits and two RBIs and Marcell Ozuna had two hits and an RBI for Atlanta, which had won seven of eight.

After Atlanta closed to 4-3 in the top of the seventh, Naylor hit a two-out fly ball that fell between left fielder Verdugo and center fielder Michael Harris II for a two-run double and a 6-3 lead in the bottom of the inning.

Ozuna drove in a run with a two-out double in the ninth and Matt Olson walked before Justin Martinez got Ozzie Albies to fly out for his third save in as many chances.

Atlanta’s Spencer Schwellenbach (1-2) gave up four runs (three earned) and seven hits in six innings, with six strikeouts and one walk. It was his fifth quality start in six appearances.

Carroll threw out Verdugo attempting to score from third base on a medium-deep fly down the right field line to complete the double play in the top of the first. Carroll tripled to lead off the bottom of the inning and scored on Perdomo’s groundout for a 1-0 lead.

Lourdes Gurriel Jr.’s sacrifice drove in an unearned run for a 2-0 Arizona lead in the second after Schwellenbach’s throwing error put runners on second and third.

Alek Thomas’ RBI double made it 3-0 in the fourth. Verdugo doubled in Eli White for the Braves’ first run in the fifth before Perdomo’s two-out homer in the last of the inning gave Arizona a 4-1 lead.

Atlanta had consecutive RBI singles from Nick Allen and Verdugo to close within 4-3 after third baseman Eugenio Suarez’s fielding error opened the seventh, but Shelby Miller struck out two and got Albies to foul out with the bases loaded to end the inning.
