Keaton Winn didn’t make it out of the 1st inning, Tom Murphy left injured in the 2nd, and by the time the Giants came to bat for a 3rd time, they were trailing 9-0.
San Francisco Giants pitcher Keaton Winn walks off the field after being pulled during the first inning of a baseball game against the Philadelphia Phillies, Saturday, May 4, 2024, in Philadelphia. PHILADELPHIA — It’s debatable what was more relentless Saturday evening at Citizens Bank Park: the rain, or the Phillies’ offense.
You could say Keaton Winn had the worst night of anyone, struggling to grip the baseball, find the strike zone or fool Phillies hitters. But then again, Winn was granted shelter in the third-base dugout after recording only two outs while his defense slogged through a five-run first inning and a four-run second against Mitch White.
It was evident from the get-go that the wet conditions were bothersome to Winn, who issued walks to the first two batters he faced and hit the Phillies’ cleanup man, Alec Bohm. Winn was unable to command either of his two best pitches, the splitter and sinker, and mostly relented to four-seam fastballs before Bob Melvin came out to get him.
As the Giants attempted to cut into the deficit, they faced the same challenges that have plagued them all season. They put runners on base but weren’t able to drive them in. They put six men on base in the second and third innings, but Nick Ahmed, who doubled to lead off the second, was the only one to cross the plate.
