Their ace was dealing. Their offense provided a three-run lead. This was their game to win.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nextcitydigest.com\/?p=4846\">Taylor Farms recalls lettuce shipped to 27 states over cyclospora risk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>As has been the case far too often, they ended the day with another loss to their name.<\/p>\n<p>The Giants lost 4-3 to the Seattle Mariners in 10 innings on Saturday evening at T-Mobile as Julio Rodr\u00edguez delivered a walk-off sacrifice fly off reliever Dylan Smith.<\/p>\n<p>San Francisco (42-56) is now 0-6 this year when it has had an opportunity to win a fourth game in a row.<\/p>\n<p>Logan Webb was trending towards a shutout before allowing a game-tying, three-run homer in the bottom of the seventh. Webb, instead, had to settle for a final line that wasn\u2019t representative of how well he pitched: 6 2\/3 innings, three runs, five strikeouts, one walk.<\/p>\n<p>Rafael Devers and Willy Adames each hit solo shots, their 20th and 17th home runs of the season, respectively. Devers joins Kyle Schwarber, Juan Soto and Matt Olson as the only other players to hit at least 20 homers in each of the last eight full seasons (excluding 2020). His 20 home runs are the most by a Giant in the team\u2019s first 98 games since Barry Bonds (25) in 2004.<\/p>\n<p>The Giants scored the game\u2019s first run in the top of the third when Mariners center fielder Luke Raley fumbled the ball on Bryce Eldridge\u2019s single with runners on first and second. Third base coach Gary Pettis initially held Drew Gilbert, the runner on second, but Pettis waved Gilbert home once Raley committed the error.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nextcitydigest.com\/?p=4844\">Palo Alto welcomes Marufuku Ramen: Enjoy free tote bags at the grand opening on July 25<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Devers doubled San Francisco\u2019s lead in the sixth with an opposite-field solo homer that barely cleared the left-field fence. Third base umpire Mark Ripperger initially signaled that the ball was foul, but Devers tapped both of his ears to signal a request for a review. The umpiring crew briefly convened, and Devers\u2019 foul ball was turned into a home run.<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>There wouldn\u2019t be a need for replay three batters later when Adames hit his second home run in the last two games, an opposite-field solo shot that expanded the Giants\u2019 lead to 3-0. With Webb cruising along, those three runs looked like they were going to be enough. That changed with one swing.<\/p>\n<p>Webb was cruising along until the bottom of the seventh, hitting Randy Arozarena and walking Josh Naylor with one out to bring the tying run to the plate. The Giants\u2019 ace was on the verge of escaping trouble when he got Cal Raleigh to pop out, but Seattle\u2019s Cole Young provided the equalizer by hitting a game-tying three-run homer that sent T-Mobile Park into a frenzy.<\/p>\n<p>Manager Tony Vitello kept Webb in the game after allowing the homer, but pulled him after second baseman Luis Arraez flubbed an inning-ending grounder. Webb walked off the mound having thrown 30 pitches in the seventh.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Worth noting<\/strong><\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Jackson Flora, the fourth overall pick in the 2026 MLB draft, signed with the Giants for $7,997,500, nearly a million less than the slot value of $8,988,400.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nextcitydigest.com\/?p=4842\">Karlie Lema scores two as Bay FC thrashes North Carolina in first home game in nearly two months<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Giants are 0-6 this year when they&#8217;ve had an opportunity to win a fourth game in a row<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4847,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4848","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 -
