Snell tossed 5 shutout innings and the Giants got home runs from Heliot Ramos and Tyler Fitzgerald.
Blake Snell #7 of the San Francisco Giants pitches in the top of the first inning against the Toronto Blue Jays at Oracle Park on July 09, 2024 in San Francisco, California. Delayed by his late signing, then two stints on the injured list, the version of the two-time Cy Young award winner the Giants thought they were getting when they inked the left-hander to a $62 million contract finally showed up Tuesday evening at Oracle Park.
Fitzgerald’s solo shot an inning earlier put the Giants in position for their ninth-inning comeback, after they nearly wasted the best outing of the year they’ve received from Snell. A couple young Giants provided their own power display hours after president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi explained the “vote of confidence” in them the front office made by recently parting ways with a pair of veterans, setting the stage for them to contribute to the walkoff win in the ninth.
The solo shot from Ramos was the 24-year-old outfielder’s first home run since being named an All-Star on Sunday and reclaimed the team lead from Chapman. Asked before the game about participating in the home run derby, Ramos said he hadn’t been asked and sheepishly responded, “You think I have the juice?”
