The San Francisco Giants lost 2-1 to the New York Mets, marking their continued struggles since the All-Star break. They fell to 0-4 when ace Robbie Ray pitches. Critical moments included Ray walking two batters, leading to a double that scored runs. The Giants went 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position, with their only run scoring through a groundout after loading the bases. Despite several hard-hit balls late in the game, they could not capitalize. Errors in defense, including Matt Chapman’s 10th of the season, plagued the team further.
The crucial moment of the game came when Ray walked Juan Soto and Starling Marte, who came around to score on a two-out double by Mark Vientos.
As for the Giants, they went 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position. Their lone run came after Willy Adames and Matt Chapman singled, Casey Schmitt walked to load the bases, and Jung Hoo Lee got Adames home with a groundout.
Schmitt led off the inning with a 97 MPH line drive - caught by the third baseman for an out. With two outs, Patrick Bailey hit a ball 106 MPH - caught by the first baseman.
But Matt Chapman making his 10th error of the season? Seems impossible.
