Tristan Beck - Collects win Sunday Beck (2-0) earned the extra-innings win Sunday over the Red Sox, walking one and striking out three over two scoreless and hitless innings.
Impact Beck was called up from Triple-A Sacramento earlier in the day to provide some length out of the bullpen with Anthony DeSclafani (elbow) landing on the injured list. Beck did his job well, working the 10th and 11th innings before Joc Pederson's bases-loaded walk forced in the winning run in the bottom of the 11th. Beck has a 2.94 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 41:13 K:BB through 52 innings over 21 appearances at the major-league level this year. His role is likely to be versatile while he's with the Giants, so he could have some chances to vulture wins if he gets middle-innings assignments.

Ross Stripling - Steady in bulk relief Stripling allowed a run on four hits and struck out three without walking a batter over 4.1 innings Sunday versus the Red Sox. He did not factor in the decision.
Impact Stripling turned in a solid bulk-relief outing after starting his last five outings. He threw 63 pitches (41 strikes) after taking over for opener Scott Alexander with two outs in the second inning. Stripling is now at a 5.52 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 48:11 K:BB through 62 innings over 16 appearances (10 starts) this season. The right-hander has filled a swingman role for much of the year, so it's unclear if he'll start or work behind an opener again in his next outing, tentatively scheduled to be on the road in Oakland next weekend.

Mike Yastrzemski - Managing left hamstring tightness Yastrzemski exited Sunday's game against the Red Sox in the fifth inning due to left hamstring tightness, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Yastrzemski came off the bench to begin Sunday's matchup but entered the game as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the third inning and hit a double. However, he was replaced a few innings later with an injury that has bothered him several times this season. The severity of his current injury isn't yet clear, but it's possible the Giants proceed with caution given his recent history with left hamstring issues.

Mike Yastrzemski - Opening Sunday's game on bench Yastrzemski is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact Yastrzemski will begin the contest on the bench while the Red Sox bring a lefty opening pitcher (Brennan Bernardino) to the hill. The right-handed-hitting Austin Slater will draw the start over Yastrzemski in the outfield, though it's possible Yastrzemski enters the game as a replacement for Slater once the Red Sox summon right-handed primary pitcher Nick Pivetta from the bullpen.

Patrick Bailey - Gets rest Sunday Bailey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact Bailey will get a breather after he started behind the plate in each of the Giants' previous six games. Blake Sabol is catching for opening pitcher Scott Alexander in the series finale.

Joc Pederson - Not in Sunday's lineup Pederson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Lefty Brennan Bernardino is serving as Boston's opener Sunday, which is apparently enough to keep Pederson on the bench to start the contest. The veteran slugger has found his power stroke early in the second half with three homers and a 1.000 OPS through 14 games.
JULY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
LaMonte Wade Jr. - Still sitting Sunday Wade (back) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Red Sox, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact The 29-year-old will sit for the third straight game due to back tightness, though he may have been on the bench regardless with lefty Brennan Bernardino starting for Boston, though he's only serving as an opener. It's unclear if Wade will be available off the bench, and he should continue to be considered day-to-day.

Tristan Beck - Brought back from Triple-A The Giants recalled Beck from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday.
Impact Though he'll be joining the 26-man active roster as a replacement for injured starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani (elbow), Beck won't necessarily be the Giants' first choice to fill the opening in the rotation. Sean Manaea tossed 4.2 scoreless innings out of the bullpen after DeSclafani's early exit in Saturday's 3-2 win over Boston and thus profiles as the most logical candidate to enter the rotation when a fifth starter is next needed Thursday versus Arizona. Since Manaea won't be available for a few days, however, Beck will give the Giants some extra coverage in the bullpen in the meantime.

Anthony DeSclafani - Out with flexor strain DeSclafani was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday with a right elbow flexor strain, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact The right-hander was diagnosed with a Grade 1 strain after undergoing an MRI and will be shut down from throwing for at least the next few weeks, per Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area. DeSclafani is without a timetable for hit return, but he shouldn't be expected back until at least mid-September given the shutdown period, and there's a chance he's unable to return this season.

MLB roundup: Giants' J.D. Davis belts walk-off HR J.D.
JULY 30, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Wilmer Flores - Racks up three hits Flores went 3-for-5 with a double and one RBI in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Red Sox.
Impact Flores has knocked an extra-base hit in four of his last six games. He's put together a strong July, going 28-for-71 (.394) over 21 contests with five home runs and nine RBI. While he's not an everyday player, Flores continues to provide steady cover around the infield for the Giants. He's up to a .297/.357/.534 slash line with 13 homers, 33 RBI, 32 runs scored and 16 doubles through 76 games.
JULY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Camilo Doval - Backs into win Doval (3-3) allowed two runs on two hits and a walk while striking out one over one inning, taking a blown save but picking up the win Saturday versus the Red Sox.
Impact Doval gave up a two-run, game-tying single to Justin Turner in the top of the ninth inning, but J.D. Davis's walk-off solo home run lifted the Giants to the win. Doval had pitched seven consecutive scoreless innings entering Saturday. Despite the misstep, the closer has a 2.68 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 63:19 K:BB through 47 innings while converting 31 of 34 save chances this season.
JULY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ross Stripling - Could work in bulk role Sunday Stripling won't start Sunday's game against the Red Sox but could pitch behind opener Scott Alexander, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Areareports.
Impact The Giants haven't announced their pitching plans beyond Alexander being named the starter, but Stripling could work in a bulk role given his 4.43 ERA over his past four starts. The veteran swingman has a 5.77 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 45:11 K:BB across 57.2 innings this season.
JULY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scott Alexander - Opening Sunday Alexander will start Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact The left-hander has opened two games for the Giants this season and will do so for the third time Sunday versus the Red Sox. Alexander has given up just two earned runs across his past 18 outings and has a 3.41 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 16:6 K:BB over 29 innings this season. Ross Stripling has struggled as a traditional starter and could handle the bulk role behind Alexander to close out the series against Boston.

JULY 30, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM
J.D. Davis - Delivers walk-off homer Davis went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's win over the Red Sox.
Impact Davis hammered his 14th long ball of 2023 Saturday, going yard off Kenley Jansen in the bottom of the ninth for a walk-off. The homer marked Davis' second in three games, while the overall effort marked his first multi-hit contest since July 4. Across his last 15 appearances, Davis is hitting 8-for-48 (.167) with seven RBI and six runs scored.
