They scored again when Albies threw the ball past Olson on Jung Hoo Lee\u2019s grounder to the right side, allowing Heliot Ramos to score.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nextcitydigest.com\/?p=3281\">Sharks\u2019 7-foot-1 draft pick coming to San Jose for development camp this week<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ramos made his return from a right quad strain Sunday and played in his first game with the Giants since May 15.<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Arraez led off the inning with an infield single down the left-field line, and Ramos further set the table with a single to center. Arraez added on in the seventh, bringing in an insurance run with a sacrifice fly to right that scored Drew Gilbert, who had led off the inning with a pinch-hit single to center.<\/p>\n<p>The Sunday matinee was attended by 33,138 fans. Next up for the Giants is a quick six-game trip that begins Monday with an evening game in Arizona and will continue with a three-game set in Colorado over the holiday weekend, starting Friday.<\/p>\n<p><em>Check back for updates to this story.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to our Giants HQ newsletter for game analysis, scores, and everything you want to know about your San Francisco Giants.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nextcitydigest.com\/?p=3280\">Canada scores in stoppage time to beat South Africa in the World Cup\u2019s first elimination round match<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The San Francisco Giants got eight innings with one unearned run from Ray, who bolstered his case as a potential trade-deadline pickup for contending teams<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3283,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3284","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
