SAN FRANCISCO \u2014 The Giants will enter the All-Star break with some much-needed good vibes, defeating the Colorado Rockies 3-1 on Sunday afternoon at Oracle Park to take three of four from their division rival.<\/p>\n

Rookie Trevor McDonald rebounded from a disastrous start against the Toronto Blue Jays, allowing just one run (on an inside-the-park homer) while matching his season-high seven innings on just 73 pitches.<\/p>\n

McDonald\u2019s afternoon got off to a shaky start when he allowed an inside-the-park home run to the Rockies\u2019 Jake McCarthy on his second pitch of the game.<\/p>\n

McCarthy pulled an 0-1 fastball from McDonald into Triples Alley and never stopped running, taking advantage of when right fielder Jung Hoo Lee fumbled the ball. The play was initially ruled a triple with an error, but was shortly overturned to an inside-the-park home run.<\/p>\n

The Giants entered the bottom of the eighth locked in a 1-1 tie, but scored a pair of runs by creating havoc on the bases with runners at the corners.<\/p>\n

Grant McCray, pinch-running for Bryce Eldridge, took off for second and forced a throw from catcher Hunter Goodman. Goodman\u2019s throw sailed into center field, and Rafael Devers, the runner on third, waltzed home to give San Francisco a one-run lead. Willy Adames provided additional insurance with a broken-bat single to drive in McCray, who advanced to third on Goodman\u2019s error.<\/p>\n

Foley finishes rehab assignment<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before the game, the Giants re-instated right-handed reliever Jason Foley from the 60-day injured list and optioned right-handed reliever Spence Bivens to Triple-A Sacramento.<\/p>\n

Foley signed a one-year, $2 million deal with the Giants in the offseason and has spent this year working his way back from right shoulder surgery, which he underwent in May 2025.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old Foley, who hasn\u2019t pitched in the majors since 2024, has a 3.16 ERA over 199 2\/3 innings with 150 strikeouts. The right-hander has experience in high-leverage situations, having recorded 35 saves in 42 opportunities.<\/p>\n

With outfielder Dakota Jordan, the team\u2019s No. 7 prospect, being promoted from High-A Eugene to Richmond, this will allow both Davidson and Jordan to continue playing center field.<\/p>\n
