Logan Webb, the player from the Giants, excelled with 10 strikeouts in 6 innings, allowing just one run and seven hits. This marked his sixth double-digit strikeout game of the season. In the match, Christian Koss and Willy Adames each played a two-run homer and Jerar Encarnacion added a solo shot against rookie Mike Burrows.

Then Encarnacion’s blast increased the Giants’ lead to 3-1 in the fourth, followed by Adames’ 18th homer of the season making it 6-1 in the fifth.
