On the SF Giants podcast with Marko:
#1 The Giants just lost two out of three at home to one of the worst teams in Baseball in the Miami Marlins, who fought through a wild game to win 7-5 in what very well may have been the final dagger in the Giants’ playoff hopes here in 2024 on Sunday.
#2 The Giants Mike Yastrzemski led off, and he took the second pitch of the inning from McCaughan and hit it out to the arcade in right field to give the Giants a 1-0 lead. For Yastrzemski, it was his 100th-career home run.
#3 The Giants LaMonte Wade then beat out the back end of a potential double play, and the throw sailed past first, which allowed Fitzgerald to come in to score and make it 2-0.
#4 The Marlins Kyle Stowers, who hit a home run to the 415 foot marker out in right-center, and the Marlins suddenly took a 4-2 lead. Giant starter Logan Webb was dealing through four innings, but the Marlins scored four runs out of nowhere in the top of the fifth to make it a new ballgame.
#5 The Marlins Nick Fortes singled into the hole at short to lead off the inning, and Kyle Stowers walked. Derek Hill bunted the runners over to second and third, and Jesus Sanchez got Fortes home with a sacrifice fly to center to make it 7-5.
