last night's win

Perfectly average, for better or worse. A W by 4 last night. The most recent result always counts most. But pitching at 6.7 RA/G. That's a problem.

Giants News

In a much-needed bounce-back, the San Francisco Giants defeated the New York Mets 9-5, led by the red-hot Rafael Devers, who added to his recent offensive explosion with a stellar performance. Devers now boasts a staggering .413 average over his last 46 at-bats, solidifying his place among the greats like Bonds and Mays. This game also marked a turning point for the Giants' pitching staff, which had been struggling with a run average of 6.3 in the past week. Manager Tony Vitello's fiery ejection after a controversial foul ball challenge highlighted the urgency in the dugout as the Giants look to make a late season push. With new reliever Joel Kuhnel activated, fans are left wondering if these changes will help stabilize a roster fighting through injuries and inconsistency as they prepare for the next showdown against the Mets.

Christian Koss is a little guy. He’s 185 pounds with rocks in his pockets. The graph illustrating how he compares to the rest of the league in terms of contact quality is as blue as Lake Tahoe. His .368 slugging percentage in 2025 has somehow found the space to drop even lower in 2026, falling […]
