Giants’ bats ruin another Logan Webb gem in loss to Marlins
Key Points:
- Giants pitcher Logan Webb delivered a strong performance against the Miami Marlins, pitching eight innings with two earned runs, five hits, one walk, and five strikeouts, continuing his solid form since returning from the injured list.
- Despite Webb's efforts, the Giants' offense struggled, managing only four hits and one run against Miami's pitching staff, which included a bullpen that allowed four runs over 17 2/3 innings during the weekend series.
- Casey Schmitt was a standout for San Francisco, recording two hits and the team's only RBI, marking his sixth consecutive multi-hit game and raising his batting average to .296.
- An unusual incident occurred in the ninth inning when Rafael Devers initially resisted being replaced by a pinch runner due to soreness but was eventually taken out; the pinch runner failed to advance, leading to a game-ending double play.
- The Giants were swept in the three-game series by the Marlins, concluding their Florida road trip winless at 0-6, following a similar outcome against the Tampa Bay Rays earlier in the season.
