It didnât take long for the San Francisco Giants to apply pressure as a chaotic opening inning set the tone. The Giants sent five batters to the plate before the Los Angeles Dodgers could record an out, immediately putting stress on starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
The first out came in dramatic fashion when Casey Schmitt lifted a pop-up into left-center field, resulting in a collision between Alex Call and Teoscar HernĂĄndez. Despite the contact, Call managed to secure the catch, finally ending the Dodgersâ early scramble.
By that point, however, the damage had been done. San Francisco plated three runs in the inning, and ultimately that would be all that the Giants would need to secure a 3-1 victory over the Dodgers.
Roupp Navigates Trouble, Limits Damage
Right-hander Landen Roupp delivered a composed, if imperfect, outing. While he kept the Dodgers scoreless through the first three innings, command issues began to surface in the fourth.
With the bases loaded, Roupp issued a walk that allowed Hyeseong Kim to score Los Angelesâ only run of the night. Still, he quickly minimized further damage, inducing an inning-ending double play off the bat of Alex Call.
