Luis Matos delivered the game-winning sacrifice fly
San Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman, left, tags out Philadelphia Phillies’ J.T. Realmuto at third during the sixth inning of a baseball game Tuesday, May 28, 2024, in San Francisco. Bryce Harper reached first on the play. SAN FRANCISCO — Memorial Day Weekend ended, but the fun continued for the 34,655 paying attendees at Oracle Park on Tuesday night.
It wasn’t as action-packed as some of their recent comeback victories, but the Giants’ 1-0 win over the MLB-best Phillies was just as impressive. By beating Philadelphia without a traditional starter, San Francisco has now won 10 of its last 12 games. Another sharp play on the left side of the Giants’ infield — Brett Wisely shoveling a sharp grounder to Chapman for a putout — negated a leadoff double by JT Realmuto in the sixth inning.
The Giants didn’t necessarily chase him out, but they ended Wheeler’s night after six shutout innings and 101 pitches. The ace left a 0-0 game, as the Giants’ relievers and defense muted the Phillies’ order. A 1-2-3 top of the ninth from Sean Hjelle nonetheless gave the middle of the Giants’ lineup a chance for a walk-off.
