  "account": "San Francisco Giants pitcher Yunior Marte made a strong impression during his major league debut on Saturday night at Oracle Park, as the Giants defeated the Diamondbacks 7-2. The 23-year-old right-hander, who started Game 2 of the doubleheader, allowed three hits and two walks while striking out three and recording a double-play ball. Marte, a 6-foot-6, 230-pound prospect, was acquired from the Royals at last year's trade deadline and is the Giants' No. 24 prospect according to MLB Pipeline. His solid performance, coupled with the team's need for pitchers, made him an ideal choice to make the leap from Double-A to the big leagues.",
  "summary": "The San Francisco Giants promoted pitcher Yunior Marte from Double-A Richmond and the right-hander showed promise with 4⅔ innings of work in a win over the Diamondbacks at Oracle Park on Saturday.",
