The Giants are looking to finish the unofficial first half of the season on a high note as Robbie Ray takes on Yoshinobu Yamamoto. San Francisco won Friday night’s series opener, staving off a comeback attempt by the Dodgers, then lost Saturday as Shohei Ohtani made his pitching debut in the rivalry.

Willy Adames homered in the second inning and hit a two-run triple in San Francisco's five-run fifth to back Logan Webb's win, and the Giants sent the rival Los Angeles Dodgers to their seventh straight loss with an 8-7 victory.

Michael Conforto had three hits and scored twice, Shohei Ohtani took another encouraging step back on the mound in his recovery from elbow surgery and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 2-1 to end a seven-game losing streak.

Shohei Ohtani pitched three scoreless innings, Alex Vesia emerged from a bases-loaded jam in the eighth and the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers snapped a seven-game losing streak with a 2-1 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Saturday afternoon.

The two-way Japanese star, who did not pitch in all of 2024, was also the team’s designated hitter and hit in the leadoff. He grounded out in his first two at-bats and then struck out twice.
