SF Giants beat at the San Francisco Chronicle | IG: shaynarubin
Wilmer Flores has his first home run since June 7 against...the Braves. It's a 3-run homer to make it 9-0.
Landen Roupp is done for the night, lowering his ERA to 3.11 with five shutout innings. He struck out 6 and walked 1, just what the Giants needed.
Matt Chapman hit an RBI triple, Casey Schmitt smoked a 416-foot homer and the Giants take a 4-0 lead in the second inning.
Hayden Birdsong was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento following his concerning start against the Atlanta Braves on Monday. The San Francisco Giants also optioned Tristan Beck. sfchronicle.com/sports/giants/…
Carson Seymour and Sean Hjelle are here as fresh arms, but there are no plans for either to start when Birdsong's day in the rotation rolls around. "We'll figure that out when we get there," Melvin says.
Devers makes his debut at first base today: Jung Hoo Lee (L) – CF Heliot Ramos – LF Rafael Devers (L) – 1B Willy Adames – SS Matt Chapman – 3B Wilmer Flores – DH Casey Schmitt – 2B Patrick Bailey (S) – C Luis Matos – RF Landen Roupp – RHP
The Giants optioned Hayden Birdsong and Tristan Beck. Carson Seymour and Sean Hjelle recalled.
The Giants lose six straight while Hayden Birdsong’s outing forces questions about potential rotation changes sfchronicle.com/sports/giants/…
"In the first half we were grinders and lately it feels like the energy is not there and not playing how we play." “It’s not a good look what we’re doing right now. It’s not timely at all. They know that.” The Giants lose 6 straight: sfchronicle.com/sports/giants/…
The Giants lose to the Braves, 9-5. They've lost six in a row, extending their longest losing streak of the year. Hayden Birdsong's outing set the tone... (Willy Adames had four hits. Including two doubles and a homer.)
Ronald Acuna ran thru a stop sign to score from first base on a single up the middle. Not a great look, Giants wise.
Hayden Birsdong threw 25 pitches, 6 for strikes, walked 4 and departed without recording an out. The command issues have been a problem for his last four starts, and worse now. Last Giant to face at least 6 without recording an out is Zack Littell in 2021. Last non-opener was…
Baldwin clears the bases with a double. It's 3-1 and there is movement in the bullpen.
Hayden Birdsong still can't find the strike zone - he walks the first three Braves hitters he sees. Few pitches have been particularly close.

If ya look closely you'll see that the Giants bat boy for the evening is Justin Han, Jung Hoo Lee's translator.
The Giants signed all but one of their draft picks and three undrafted free agents
