The win the other night was helped along by FNG Yunior Marte who as I pointed out was acquired from the Braves in the Yaz trade. I also note that Yaz struck out (on a challenge!) to end tonight's contest. Tonight's starter, Anthony Molina, came to SF (via Atlanta) for Tyler Mahle. So, Buster's hot stove happenings have delivered some early returns. Molina is only 24 and made his debut with Colorado when he was a mere 22 years. Marte is a mere 22. Bring on the Youth Brigade!
Rafael Devers hit his 30th homer. Jonah Cox and Osleivis Basabe homered. Turner Hill had a two-run double in the four-run 6th. Nice relief work from Jason Foley, Reiver Sanmartin, and Dylan Smith got the job done.
The Giants finish the season with a 5-1 record against the 82-56 NL East-leading Braves. Go figure.
Pittsburgh tomorrow, 3:40 PT.
Go Giants!
