Walk-off? SF Giants mount game-winning rally without a hit to beat Braves, after nearly blowing it in the 8th

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 21:24:32 GMT

ATLANTA — A hit, who needs a hit?After blowing a late lead for the second straight game here when Taylor Rogers issued back-to-back walks and Ronald Acuña Jr. scored the tying run on a stolen base and and a throwing error with two outs in the bottom of the eighth, the Giants stole a win to avoid being swept in this three-game series when Atlanta’s ninth-inning reliever, Kirby Yates, was even more erratic.The Giants loaded the bases and scored the winning run getting a hit in the top of the ninth. Yates walked the leadoff man, Michael Conforto, and hit back-to-back batters to load the bases for Joc Pederson. Entering as a pinch-hitter, Pederson didn’t have to hit much — he watched four pitches outside the strike zone, and then awaited Conforto’s slow jog home to celebrate one of the most important walks of his career before taking first base.Not quite a walk-off the traditional sense, but a walk-off nonetheless. Final score: 4-3.Rogers was tasked with protecting a 3...
