The Giants didn’t hold a lead for one inning of the three-game series, taking a 4-game losing streak and a 2-5 record into Friday’s home opener.
Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani avoids a tag from San Francisco Giants catcher Patrick Bailey while scoring off of a double hit by Will Smith during the third inning of a baseball game against the San Francisco Giants in Los Angeles, Wednesday, April 3, 2024.
Dropping the final two games of the series by just one run apiece, the Giants scratched and clawed again Wednesday, with a two-run single from Michael Conforto and another solo shot from catcher Patrick Bailey, but moral victories don’t count in the standings. Issuing three walks, Harrison was tagged for four runs on six hits, including a solo homer from light-hitting shortstop Miguel Rojas.On all three of Harrison’s free passes, he held count leverage with two strikes, losing Max Muncy with a fastball and a changeup off the plate inside, Chris Taylor with a pair of fastballs above the letters, and Mookie Betts with two fastballs off the outside corner after he fouled off a tough two-strike changeup.
Bailey unloaded on a hanging slider from Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow in the third inning, sending the pitch deep into the right field seats for the Giants’ first run of the night and the switch-hitting catcher’s first home run of the season. Adding a single in his second at-bat, Bailey raised his batting average to .375 and OPS to 1.007.
