The loss was the Giants’ sixth in seven games this road trip, which continues on for three games in Colorado.
Mason Black #47 of the San Francisco Giants throws a pitch in the bottom of the first inning against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park on May 6, 2024 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In the ballpark where he grew up attending games, with scores of friends and family from his nearby hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania, in attendance, Black mowed through the powerful Phillies twice. He had three strikeouts by the end of the second inning, making victims of J.T.
Until the fifth, Black had been doing his best impression of Roy Halladay, the Phillies pitcher he admired most growing up. Harper’s home run was his second of the series, driving in six runs between them. In 14 trips to the plate this series, Harper reached base nine times and scored five runs. It should catch your eye, then, that Black caught him looking to end the first inning by painting the inside corner with a changeup. Catcher Jakson Reetz tossed the ball aside after the previous batter, Realmuto, who fouled back a four-seamer in Reetz’s glove for Black’s first career punchout.
