The Giants played a pretty good game for 7.5 innings when another bullpen failure ruined an excellent start by Cesar Perdomo. Key Lines:
The Giants lineup managed just 5 hits, all singles. They bunched 3 together with 2 outs in the 4'th inning for their 2 runs. Bryce Eldridge started it with a line drive single to RF. Jonah Cox poked one past the first baseman into a "no-man's land" behind first base and alertly took 2B when the throw went to 3B trying to get Eldridge. Jung Hoo Lee followed with a bloop single to drive in the Eldridge and Cox.
Cesar Perdomo LHP- 6 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 4 K's, 7/3 GO/AO. ERA= 0.90. Perdomo's command was a little shaky in the first 2 innings but got better as the game went on. Javier Lopez pointed out that his slider was staying up in the zone but he pivoted to his changeup as his main secondary pitch and it was effective in keeping the Mets batters off balance.
Carson Seymour RHP- 1 IP, 3 H, 4 R, 1 BB, 0 K, 2 HR. ERA= 5.79. I've been a big in advocate for Seymour as anyone. He's big, tall, throws hard and gets elite ground ball rates. He also gives up a lot of home runs. Is he running out of time to find traction on his MLB career? someone on Bluesky posted that this was the 8'th time this season the Giants have lost after leading in the 8'th inning.
The Giants start a homestand tomorrow evening against the Cardinals with Logan Webb RHP facing Michael McGreevy LHP who comes in with a ERA of 3.97.
