Overview

• The San Francisco Giants defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 10-4 in the series opener, improving their record to 11-4 for the season.
• Taijuan Walker's 11⅔ inning scoreless streak ended in a six-run second inning, exacerbated by his own throwing error and home runs from Tyler Fitzgerald and Willy Adames.
• Fitzgerald had a standout performance, narrowly missing the cycle, while Adames and Mike Yastrzemski also contributed key home runs to extend the Giants' lead.
• The Phillies struggled offensively, going 1-for-11 with runners in scoring position and leaving eight runners stranded despite a promising three-run first inning.
• Giants starter Landen Roupp overcame a rough start to strike out eight over five innings, while the bullpen shut down multiple Phillies scoring opportunities to secure the win.
