Snell showed why he's the reigning Cy Young Award winner with 6 innings, 2 hits, 2 walks, and 15 strikeouts. He's the first pitcher in MLB history to strike out 15 in 6 or fewer innings.
Despite a lack of run support, Snell's brilliance paralleled Tim Lincecum's legendary 15-strikeout game 15 years prior, cementing a historic pitching performance for the Giants.
Combining historical context and dominance, Snell's 103-pitch gem showcases the San Francisco Giants' reliance on his Cy Young prowess amidst lackluster offensive support.
The Giants' offensive struggles mirrored past woes, with Snell's lone run support coming from a solo home run. Despite chances, their offense failed to capitalize on opportunities throughout the game.
