Never dead: Mike Yastrzemski’s walk-off splash hits gives SF Giants another improbable win
SAN FRANCISCO — By now, you should know not to count out these San Francisco Giants until the 27th and final out.Silenced for six innings Monday night by longtime nemesis Michael Wacha, trailing the Padres by two runs entering the ninth inning, the Giants manufactured yet another come-from-behind win, extending their season-best winning streak to eight games, walking off their division rivals in improbable fashion.
The Giants, who had mustered two runs on a pair of solo home runs through the first eight innings, rallied for two runs to tie the game in the ninth. Yastrzemski raced home to score the tying run, his outstretched hand barely beating Juan Soto’s throw to the plate, after Blake Sabol led off the inning with a walk and came around to score on a wild pitch from Luis Garcia, who walked two batters, allowed one hit and recorded only one out.
Rookie Ryan Walker warmed up to Brebbia’s self-deprecating song of choice but immediately ran into trouble, serving up the first of Soto’s two home runs. Jakob Junis surrendered the next two runs on a two-strike single to Kim in the fourth. And Keaton Winn, making his Oracle Park debut, was given a rough introduction by Soto, who homered for the second time on the first pitch the 25-year-old rookie threw in his home ballpark.
