Perdomo went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Sunday's 1-0 win over Colorado.
Perdomo extended a hit streak to six games with a second-inning single, after which he stole his 11th base over 46 games. That's two more than the shortstop had in 98 games last year, and he's threatening the career-high 16 swipes he posted in 2023 across 144 games. Perdomo is enjoying his most productive season since becoming a full-time starter in 2022.

Rotowire
Perdomo went 2-for-3 with a double in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Dodgers.

While filling in for Marte, he had a 1.101 OPS from the leadoff spot and an .836 OPS when hitting second.

Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Moving up to leadoff spot
Rotowire
Perdomo is hitting atop Arizona's batting order for Saturday's game against the Nationals.
Arizona used either Ketel Marte (hamstring) or Corbin Carroll to bat leadoff in each of the team's first eight games, but with Marte landing on the injured list Saturday morning, Perdomo will get a chance to hit atop the order. The 25-year-old shortstop has certainly looked the part of a leadoff hitter so far this season, slashing .379/.375/.552 with a home run, 11 RBI, five runs and two stolen bases through 33 plate appearances. Carroll will bat second Saturday after hitting leadoff in half of the team's initial eight contests.
Perdomo batted second and went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 10-6 win over the Cubs.
The Diamondbacks appeared headed for a third loss in the four-game series against the Cubs, but they erupted for eight runs in the eighth inning to erase a 6-2 deficit. Perdomo started the fun with a double up the alley in right-center to plate two runs. The shortstop has hit safely in all four games to start the season and has five RBI. He normally hits down the order but was moved up to second with Corbin Carroll not in Sunday's starting lineup.

Rotowire
Perdomo went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 6-3 loss to San Francisco.

This is not the same hitter that batted .195 in 2022, his first full season in the majors.

Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Swats second homer
Rotowire
Perdomo went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional run and a double in Wednesday's 10-8 win against Miami.
Perdomo entered Wednesday with just one homer through 63 games, but he displayed some unexpected power to provide an insurance run with a solo blast in the eighth inning. The long ball was the infielder's first extra-base hit of any sort over his past 10 games, though he's been reaching base consistently of late with six hits and three walks across his past 20 plate appearances. Perdomo's overall .281 batting average on the campaign is on pace for a career-best mark.
Perdomo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.
After going hitless in the final two games of the Diamondbacks' series against the Cubs this past weekend, Perdomo will get a breather as Arizona's road trip moves to Kansas City. Kevin Newman will step in for Perdomo at shortstop and will bat eighth.
