Riley O’Brien allowed a ninth-inning single and
retired Patrick Bailey on a game-ending, double-play grounder
for his third save, finishing a five-hitter.
Seeking its first postseason appearance since 2021, San
Francisco (72-71) is four games behind the New York Mets for the
third and final NL wild card. The Giants have lost two straight
games after winning 11 of 12.
Kai-Wei Teng (2-4) matched his career high of eight strikeouts,
allowing three runs, three hits and five walks in four-plus
innings.
Lars Nootbaar chased Teng with an RBI single after walks to
Jordan Walker, Nathan Church and José Fermín starting the fifth.
Iván Herrera had an RBI single, Nolan Gorman drew a bases-loaded
walk off José Butto, and Masyn Winn grounded into run-scoring
double play for a 4-0 lead.
Key moment
After Devers broke up Gray’s no-hit bid, Dominic Smith and Matt
Chapman hit RBI single. Svanson then struck out Joon-Ho Lee
looking with the bases loaded, and center fielder Nathan Church
made a running catch on a sharp line drive from Casey Schmitt.
Key stat
St. Louis is 14-5 when Gray starts at home.
