SAN FRANCISCO (AP) --- Robbie Ray held the Athletics to an unearned run and two
hits in eight innings to lead the San Francisco Giants to a 3-1 victory Tuesday
night.
Ray (6-6) struck out six and walked four. In his previous outing, the
left-hander allowed two hits in 6 1/3 shutout innings in a 7-2 win at Atlanta
last Wednesday.
Caleb Kilian worked a scoreless ninth in this one for his fifth save. He struck
out Henry Bolte with two runners on to end the game.
Jung Hoo Lee tagged Aaron Civale (5-4) for a solo homer in the second inning
for the game's first run. It was Lee's fifth HR of the season.
After Willy Adames doubled, Matt Chapman hit a drive off the left-field wall.
Adames scored to make it 2-0, but the throw from Tyler Soderstrom to second
baseman Zack Gelof nailed Chapman trying for a double.
Chapman accidentally spiked Gelof's right hand as Gelof was making the tag with
his glove hand. That forced Gelof to leave the game with a laceration and
contusion, and his hitting streak ended at 24 games.
He had flied to right to open the game in his lone at-bat Tuesday. Gelof also
had scored a run in 13 consecutive games.
The A's got an unearned run off Ray in the third. It remained a 2-1 game until
Rafael Devers singled home Bryce Eldridge with one out in the seventh to give
the Giants a 3-1 edge.
Casey Schmitt singled in that seventh-inning rally. Schmitt went 2 for 4,
making it his seventh straight multi-hit game. That's the Giants' longest such
streak since Marco Scutaro's seven-gamer in 2013.
Up next
Athletics rookie LHP Gage Jump (3-1, 2.37 ERA) faces Giants RHP Tyler Mahle
(1-7, 6.04) on Wednesday night. Mahle has been on the injured list for nearly a
month because of a strained left hamstring.
