Diamondbacks 9, Marlins 1

David Peralta had three RBIs to help back six solid innings by Chase Anderson as host Arizona rolled in the opener of a three-game set.

Martin Prado slugged a solo homer, Miguel Montero had a two-run double and Paul Goldschmidt an RBI double for the Diamondbacks, who were 5-for-10 with runners in scoring position. Anderson (6-4) snapped a personal four-game losing streak after letting up a run and tying a personal best with eight strikeouts.

Tom Koehler (6-7) was reached for seven runs in a season-low three-plus innings in his first start since coming off the paternity list for Miami. All-Star hopeful Casey McGehee had two hits and scored the Marlins' lone run on a sacrifice fly by Adeiny Hechavarria.

Prado led off the second with his fourth blast of the year and two singles set up Peralta, who made it 3-0 with a double to left-center. Goldschmidt followed with a base hit and Montero doubled in a pair to cap the rally at five runs.

Peralta's RBI triple highlighted a three-run fourth that put the Diamondbacks up 8-0. Anderson limited the damage to a run after loading the bases in the sixth and Didi Gregorius drove in a run with a triple in the seventh as Arizona improved to 37-21 at home against Miami.
