Bailey’s big at-bat sets up game-winning hit as SF Giants come back, hold on to beat Cardinals

Brandon Crawford drove in Patrick Bailey for the go-ahead run after the rookie reached on the 11th pitch of his at-bat in the 8th inning.

Patrick Bailey fouled off one 3-2 fastball. He sent the next pitch, another heater, back to the net. The St. Louis reliever on the other side of this battle, Chris Stratton, then turned to a curveball, and Bailey fought that pitch off, too.

“One thing’s for sure is we’re never out of it,” Bailey said on the NBC Sports Bay Area postgame show. “We have consistent at bats from the first inning through the ninth, so we just have to wait for that moment for the big hit.” “I think I fouled off a couple pitches I could’ve hit well, but I stuck with it. With two strikes just let the fastball get deep … and I was able to get a fastball I could handle.”

The Giants improved to 5-22 in games while trailing after six innings, with three wins coming in the past week, clinching a win in the season series over the Cardinals for the first time since 2014. They will go for only their third series win at Busch Stadium since 2013 in the final two games, with Alex Cobb and Anthony DeSclafani on the mound.
