Overview

• San Francisco extended its skid to six games with a 9-5 loss in Atlanta, marking the franchise’s worst stretch of the season.
• Hayden Birdsong faced six batters without recording an out, throwing 25 pitches with only six strikes and issuing four walks.
• The Giants fell two games behind in the National League wild-card race after being swept by Toronto and are now seeking rotation reinforcements.
• Trading prospects Kyle Harrison and Jordan Hicks for Rafael Devers has left San Francisco without a clear next starter in its rotation.
• Atlanta dropped to 12 games under .500 despite three innings of relief from newcomer Dane Dunning, who helped ease their overworked bullpen.
