Giants Rally to Defeat Padres 6-5

SAN FRANCISCO — Heliot Ramos hit a tying two-run double in the seventh inning, and Jung Hoo Lee followed with a sacrifice fly to put San Francisco ahead as the Giants rallied to beat the San Diego Padres 6-5 on Wednesday night.

San Francisco ended a stretch of 16 straight games scoring four or fewer runs with the victory.

Game Details and Key Moments

Gavin Sheets hit a two-run triple in the first inning and singled in two more runs in the fifth for San Diego. The Padres had won the first two games of the four-game series, both in 10 innings.

Fernando Tatis Jr. singled to start the ninth against Ryan Walker. Right fielder Daniel Johnson then ran down Luis Arráez's fly ball to prevent an extra-base hit. Manny Machado followed with a single before Randy Rodríguez relieved Walker and recorded the final two outs for his first career save.

Matt Chapman hit a two-run homer in the sixth off right-hander Nick Pivetta. Pivetta struck out five over six innings but was tagged for five runs on six hits.

Pivetta gave way to Jason Adam (5-2) after walking Willy Adames to start the seventh and allowing Daniel Johnson's single. After Patrick Bailey struck out, Tyler Fitzgerald singled to load the bases for Ramos' crucial double.

Sean Hjelle (1-0) pitched 2 2/3 innings of relief for the win in his season debut after being recalled from the minors Tuesday.

Key Moment

Sheets’ second hit chased Giants lefty Kyle Harrison, who was checked by an athletic trainer in the dugout after being hit in the pitching elbow with a comebacker. X-rays were negative, and Harrison was relieved there was “no damage.” He is expected to make at least one more start before Justin Verlander returns from the injured list and rejoins the rotation.

Key Stat

The Giants' 16 consecutive games with four or fewer runs ranked as their second-longest single-season streak since moving to San Francisco in 1958. They previously had a 19-game streak in 1965.

Up Next

Right-hander Dylan Cease (1-4, 4.66 ERA) pitches the series finale for San Diego opposite Giants left-hander Robbie Ray (7-1, 2.43).

In summary

The San Francisco Giants defeated the San Diego Padres 6-5. Key plays included Heliot Ramos' tying two-run double and Jung Hoo Lee's go-ahead sacrifice fly in the seventh inning for the Giants. San Diego's offense was led by Gavin Sheets, who drove in four runs. The Giants' pitching staff included Sean Hjelle earning the win and Randy Rodríguez recording his first career save. Giants starter Kyle Harrison left the game after being hit by a comebacker but avoided serious injury. This victory snapped the Giants' 16-game streak of scoring four or fewer runs.
