The Giants reached historic levels of run-scoring futility as they followed up a 3-hit shutout on Wednesday with a 1-hit shutout today adding 13 strikeouts in the process. Key Lines:
Robbie Ray LHP- 5.1 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 0 BB, 4 K's. ERA= 3.38. Ray pitched better than Logan Webb RHP on Wednesday but it didn't matter when a 9-inning shutout was required just to stay even.
Heliot Ramos LF got the Giants only hit to go with one of the Giants 3 hits on Wednesday making him the only Giants batter to get a hit in both games.
The #3 and #4 batters, Rafael Devers DH and Willy Adames SS struck out 3 times each.
Per MCC per Duane Kuiper in his postgame comments, the 4 hits in these two losses are the fewest to start the season in the entire 144 years of franchise history and it ties the 1909 White Sox for fewest in all of MLB history.
Per Sarah Langs, this is the first time in Yankees history they have shut out their opponent in each of the first two games of the season.
Per Z. Miller in the MCC Game Summary comments, Per Associated Press the 2026 Giants are the first team in MLB history to record 0 Runs on 5 hits or less in MLB history.
Tyler Mahle RHP tries to right the ship in Game 3 of the series tomorrow facing Will Warren RHP Unfortunately it's one of those darn Fox Sports 4:15 PM starts.
just 54 more games like that for Ramos to catch DiMaggio!
