Saturday, June 7th, 2025

SAN FRANCISCO -- Matt Chapman hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning and the San Francisco Giants beat the Atlanta Braves 3-2 on Saturday for their fourth straight win.

Heliot Ramos singled with one out against Braves reliever Pierce Johnson. After Wilmer Flores popped out, Chapman homered to left for his 12th of the season, giving the Giants the walk-off victory.

The dramatic finish spoiled a stellar start by Atlanta's Bryce Elder, who allowed a run and three hits while striking out 12 in eight impressive innings. The Braves lost their sixth straight game.

Giants starter Logan Webb gave up two runs and six hits in six innings while striking out 10 — his fourth double-digit strikeout effort of the season.

Tyler Rogers pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn the win, improving his record to 3-2.

Wilmer Flores had a solo homer to give the Giants a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning. Michael Harris went deep to tie the game for the Braves in the fifth. Harris's shot came one pitch after Atlanta manager Brian Snitker was ejected for arguing balls and strikes.

The Braves took a 2-1 lead in the sixth when Marcell Ozuna beat out a potential double play with the bases loaded and one out, allowing Ronald Acuña Jr. to score the go-ahead run.
