SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – Mike Yastrzemski hit a three-run home run when the San Francisco Giants defeated the Seattle Mariners 10-1 in their fifth straight win Wednesday night.
Players practiced batting with the lights on at Oracle Park on a last summer afternoon. Ash flakes rained over the baseball stadium and the smell of smoke was noticeed but not overwhelming.
“It’s weird,” Giants pitcher Tyler Anderson said.
“This morning I woke up and it was about 10 o’clock and I had to check and make sure it was not 10 pm. All the car lights were on. The street lights were on. It was a bit of a day, no The air quality wasn’t that bad though. We checked the (air quality) index, it wasn’t that bad, so it didn’t have much of an effect, it was just a weird feeling, “he said.
Anderson (2-3) pitched six innings with a three-time bleach to claim victory. The left-hander hit 4 and gave a base for balls when he first won in three openings since pitching the first full game of his career on August 22 against Arizona.
Sailors starter Nick Margevicius (1-3) struck out six goals in his first time in the series before the Giants propelled the third game of an scoreless game. He allowed seven runs, a season record in four 2/3 innings.
Joey Bart and Brandon Crawford were on board in back-to-back singles leading to third when Yastrzemski hit a shot up right for his ninth home run on a 1-2 fastball from Margevicius left at the plate.
Yastrzemski leads the majors with 8 two-run home runs.
“I think there is only one point of comfort,” Giants manager Gabe Kapler said.
“In this specific match opposite Margevicius, he was given the straight down and inside and had noticed several straights and had taken smart shots on the straights, he hit and evidently a great three-point circuit for us.
Giants third baseer Evan Longoria hit two hits and three runs in his first time back in lineup after missing two games with buttocks.
The Giants scored at least 4 points in their eleventh direct game, their longest streak since scoring four or more in 10 direct games in 2007.
“A tough game, ” said Mariners manager Scott Servais. “We haven’t had one in a while. We play very consistently. Our beginner pitcher kept us in the ball game. That’s not the case tonight. Things have slipped away from us tonight. “
Giants rookie Luis Basabe finished in his first primary league hit.
MOVE THE LIST
The Mariners have added right-handed Jimmy Yacabonis from their exchange education site. They opted for right-handed Brady Lail on site. . . . The Giants signed a contract with first base baseer Justin Smoak. Smoak had Array186 with five home runs and 15 RBIs in 33 games this season with the Brewers before being released on Sunday.
