Ahmed went 2-for-3 with two doubles and a walk as Arizona fell 8-0 to San Francisco on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Ahmed did his part on the evening, reaching base in each of his first three plate appearances with doubles in the second and sixth and a walk in the fourth though Arizona was ultimately shutout. Ahmed has a reputation as a defense-first shortstop, but he may need to perform better than his current .198/.298/.294 slash line to keep his role on a Diamondbacks team looking toward the future.
