Overview

  • Patrick Bailey smashed a game-ending three-run inside-the-park home run with one out in the ninth inning for a 4-3 comeback win against the Phillies.
  • The ball caromed off the top of Oracle Park’s right-field brick wall into center field, turning what would have been an ordinary homer into a rare inside-the-park finish.
  • Starter Robbie Ray allowed one run on four hits over 5 2/3 innings before reliever Spencer Bivens yielded Kyle Schwarber’s two-run homer in the seventh.
  • Mike Yastrzemski reached base twice and scored to help fuel San Francisco’s offense in its sixth win in seven games.
  • Bailey became the first Giant to deliver a walk-off inside-the-park homer since Angel Pagan’s 2013 feat.
