Jarlin Garcia had his first rough outing in Wednesday night's loss to the Phillies.
The final line for Carlos Rodón -- five innings, six hits, two runs , one walk, six strikeouts -- doesn't jump off the page, but he looked like the April version of himself after some shakier outings, and he certainly dominated in his final frame.
With the Giants trailing by a pair, Rodón faced the heart of the order in the fifth and struck out Rhys Hoskins, Nick Castellanos and Alec Bohm, with J.T. Realmuto stranded on second after a double. Rodón got nine swinging strikes in the inning and pumped his fastball up to 99 mph. Eight of the nine swinging strikes came on his four-seamer, which is incredibly impressive against those types of hitters.Garcia had not allowed an earned run since Sept.
Herrera walked with one out in the fourth but Rodón had him picked off. Flores' throw sailed into left field, though, and Herrera raced to third. The next batter, Johan Camargo, hit a hard grounder to third and Herrera took off for him. He should have been caught in a rundown, but third baseman Jason Vosler made his throw to the plate too quickly, allowing Herrera to turn around and safely retreat to the bag. He scored when Maton put a bunt single down.
