On the San Francisco Giants podcast with Marko Ukalovic:

#1 San Francisco Giants pitcher Logan Webb is being featured in a very special and very important public message that he addressed at a local school where he grew up in Roseville CA. Webb was addressing the passing of his 20 year old cousin Kade who was found dead from fentanyl poisoning and wanted to warn students and young people of such a poisoning.

#2 Kade thought he was taking what he thought was Percocet which is used for moderate severe pain and should not be mixed with oxycodone or acetaminophen. Turns out that Kade was addicted to pain killers and Kade was like a little brother to Webb. Poisoning is an ESPN segment with Giants pitcher Logan Webb you don’t want to miss.

#3 Marko now to the Giants, pinch hitter Joc Pederson’s walk forced in a runner Michael Conforto into score from third bases with the bases loaded which defeated the Atlanta Braves 4-3 on Sunday.

#4 The Giants also got home runs from Luis Matos and Wilmer Flores as Braves pitcher Kirby Yates had control problems. San Francisco also avoids getting swept.

#5 Giants head to Philadelphia and Citizen’s Bank Ballpark for the first of three games on tonight. The Giants Scott Alexander ( 6-2 ERA 4.06) will be the starter and the Phillies will be going with right hander Aaron Nola (10-8 ERA 4.58) a 3:40pm PT first pitch.
