Out with the old, in with the new: Ravens unveil new uniforms
Baltimore Ravens unveil new uniforms, including a striking black helmet!
The San Francisco Giants suffered an 8-3 loss to the Cincinnati Reds, with Tyler Mahle struggling on the mound, giving up two three-run home runs to rookie Sal Stewart. The Giants' offense showed signs of life but couldn't overcome the early deficit.

â MLB (@MLB) April 15, 2026 The Giants starter never had a chance and it honestly should have been worse. Eugenio Suarez went deep three pitches after Stewartâs first homer for the 328th home run of his career, tying Shawn Green and Scores Hall of Famer Mo Vaughn. In the second, he walked the first batter on four pitches and was bailed out when TJ Friedl bunted KeâBryan Hayes over â only for Mahle to pick him off second. Mahle followed that up by walking Matt McLain and Elly De La Cruz before Stewartâs three-run blast. For the inning, he gave up three walks, two hits and a homer, retiring exactly one hitter who wasnât making an out on purpose. Manager Tony Vitello treated Mahle like heâd been caught smoking and his punishment was to smoke the whole pack. There was no action in the Giants bullpen in the second or third inning, with Mahle left to eat innings and think about what he did on the mound where he spent the first six seasons of his career. Thatâs why he was still in to give up a fourth-inning bomb to De La Cruz that rivaled the flight of the space shuttle Artemis. The distance on this Elly De La Cruz MOONSHOT?

â MLB (@MLB) April 15, 2026 De La Cruzâs home run trot took only slightly less time than the entire Artemis mission. The Giants did match their highest scoring output of their losing streak with three runs, and even got to two runs by the second inning! Matt Chapman singled, Jung Hoo Lee walked and Silver Slugger candidate Daniel Susac knocked in both runners with a double down the left field line. Another day, another Daniel Susac hit đ
Tyler Mahle pitched poorly, allowing two three-run home runs and walking three batters, ultimately contributing to the Giants' 8-3 loss.
Sal Stewart is a rookie for the Cincinnati Reds who hit two three-run home runs in the game, bringing his season total to six homers and significantly boosting his RBIs.
The Giants scored three runs, matching their highest output during their losing streak, but struggled to maintain momentum against Reds starter Rhett Lowder.
The Giants placed Harrison Bader and Jared Oliva on the injured list and recalled Drew Gilbert and Will Brennan from Sacramento prior to the game.

â SF Giants on NBCS (@NBCSGiants) April 15, 2026 The offense remains a work in progress. After Susacâs double, Reds starter Rhett Lowder (2-1) retired the next 12 Giants he faced. When Luis Arraez singled to break the streak, Lowder got new No. 3 hitter Casey Schmidt to ground into an inning-ending double play. New outfielders Brennan and Ramos went 0-for-2. Rafael Deversâ frustration mirrored that of the team and the fanbase after he swung through a Lowder slider to lead off the second inning, snapping his bat in half.

â Talkin' Baseball (@TalkinBaseball\_) April 15, 2026 He would get a measure of revenge in the 7th, hitting a single off Lowder before Chapman and Lee lined out. Susac followed with another hit, then Heliot Ramos got a much-needed RBI single, pinch-hitting against left-handed reliever Brock Burke, who has two last names. Jerar Encarnacion loaded the bases with a pinch-hit single of his own, but the inning ended with a Willy Adames strikeout. In the 8th inning, the team got unlucky. After Arraez walked and Devers beat out an infield hit (4.6 seconds home to first!), Matt Chapman fouled off four pitches before hitting a scorcher straight at third baseman KeâBryan Hayes (son of Charlie!). Hayes doubled Arraez off second as the Giantsâ last chance ended. Encarnacion kept the good feelings going by turning a fly ball he couldnât reach into a force out at second in the 8th. Ramos did not keep the good vibes going when he struck out in the ninth on a pitch that landed in the left-handed batterâs box. Apropos of nothing, Bryce Eldridge is slashing 360/.492/.520 for the Sacramento River Cats, with 10 walks and 19 strikeouts in 63 plate appearances, hitting a three-run homer of his own in the first inning Wednesday night. And as we all know, the river cat is a mythical creature that lives in the American River. If you catch it, it will grant you a wish or bribe a State Senator. The bullpen mopped up well, with Blade Tidwell and Ryan Borucki pitching perfect innings and JT Brubaker logging two scoreless innings, while also getting into a shouting match with Spencer Steer overâŠpitching too slow? Hard to say. It was late and both teams were cranky. Spencer Steer with some words for Giants pitcher JT Brubaker đŹđ
â Joey DeBerardino (@JoeyDeBerardino) April 16, 2026 Thursday is a day game, where Landon Roupp tries to halt the Giantsâ five-game slide against Chase Burns, who judging by his name, leads a group of rich campers in tormenting the nerdier campers across the lake. One tip for Roupp? Donât give up home runs, which have been the Redsâ entire offense for two games, albeit an extremely effective form of offense. Also he orders chili in Cincinnati, theyâre going to pour it over spaghetti. Yes, there are some things more baffling than the Giantsâ inability to score runs.
