Mandatory Credit: Kelley L Cox-Imagn Images | Kelley L Cox-Imagn Images It took three games for the Dodgers to find any semblance of offense in San Francisco, and they managed to beat the Giants best starter to do it, salvaging a game behind a dominant Tyler Glasnow on getaway day Thursday in a 3-0 win at Oracle Park. Glasnow allowed only a single and a walk, and another batter reached on an error. Groundball double plays erased two of those runners, which meant Glasnow only faced one over the minimum in his eight scoreless innings. That matched the longest outing of his career, the fourth time he’s done it and first since April 21, 2024 against the New York Mets. San Francisco only batted twice with a runner in scoring position, both in the first inning after Luis Arráez stole second base with one out. But Glasnow struck out both Matt Chapman and Rafael Devers to end the only real threat against him. Glasnow, who allowed three hits to the and Giants in 15 innings in his two starts on the road trip, struck out nine batters batters on Thursday, lowering his ERA to 2.45 to go with his 31.7-percent strikeout rate and team-leading 38 strikeouts against only seven walks this season. Glasnow matched teammate for the longest start by a Dodger this season. Both Glasnow and Wrobleski . walked in the second inning against , and advanced to second on a groundout. , getting his second start behind the plate in the series in a day game following a night contest, singled home Muncy with two outs. It was the Dodgers’ second run of the series, but their first run-scoring hit, and all it took was 20 innings and 77 plate appearances to get it. A pair of doubles by and Muncy, on the first two pitches of the fourth inning, set the stage for the Dodgers’ first multi-run inning of the series. It was a bit comical though that it took a throwing error by center fielder for that second double to score the first. That’s because Muncy tattooed the ball 107.7 mph directly off the wall, and Tucker held up to see if it was caught. Perhaps it was the universe recognizing Muncy’s bizarre eight-homer, nine-RBI stat line this season, and simply wanting those vibes to continue, as Muncy did not get a run batted in on the play. Glasnow has completed at least six innings in all five of his starts this year. Combined with (five starts) and (four), the Dodgers’ top three starters have lasted at least six innings in all 14 outings thus far in 2026. That’ll get it done.
