The Giants finally got some good pitching from Tyler Mahle but it looked to be all for naught as the lineup (no surprise) couldn't get anything going. In the 9th however, down 1-0, Rafael Devers tied the game with a solo shot. That gave rookie Victor Bericoto a chance to play the hero. With two outs he hit a booming no-doubter for a walk-off winner. The youngster from Venezuela had already made a nice play to throw out a runner at home earlier in the game. Speaking of nice plays, Jung Hoo Lee made a great grab to end the 8th and preserve the tie. He also had two more hits!
The Giants have not delivered a lot of exciting finishes this season but this game was a nice exception. Day game today—12:45 PT. Landen Roupp gets the start.
Go Giants!
