"Logan Webb allowed three runs in the first and put San Francisco in an immediate three-run deficit but rebounded to hold St. Louis over the next five frames. Webb ended his evening with a quality start - six innings, three runs - and eclipsed the 200-inning mark for a third consecutive season, becoming the first pitcher to do so since teammate Justin Verlander (2017-19)."
"The five runs that San Francisco scored in the bottom of the third was largely a product of a throwing error by third baseman Nolan Arenado, who has long been a thorn in the Giants' side. With no outs and the bases loaded, Heliot Ramos hit a chopper right at Arenado. With a force at every base, Arenado elected to throw home to get the force out. Arenado's throw deflected off Patrick Bailey and rolled toward the Cardinals' dugout."
San Francisco entered the third inning trailing 3-0 while the Mets secured a win, dropping the Giants' elimination number to zero. Logan Webb allowed three runs in the first, then settled to complete six innings with a quality start and more than 200 innings for a third straight season. The Giants scored eight consecutive runs beginning with a five-run third inning aided by a Nolan Arenado throwing error that allowed two runs to score. Matt Chapman, Willy Adames and Jung Hoo Lee contributed key RBIs. The bullpen surrendered six unanswered runs, and the Giants lost 9-8, eliminating them from postseason contention.
