SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS NEWS

Mitch Haniger - Logs first steal Haniger went 2-for-4 with an RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Impact Haniger was busiest in the sixth inning, driving in the go-ahead run with an RBI single before scoring on Patrick Bailey's productive out. The steal was Haniger's first of the season, though he's typically not a huge speed threat -- he's never had more than eight steals in a season, and this one was his first since 2021. The outfielder is slashing .211/.228/.329 with two home runs, 11 RBI, 10 runs scored and three doubles through 21 contests.

Patrick Bailey - Launches first major-league homer Bailey went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Impact Bailey had four homers over 28 games at the top-two levels of the minors, and he showed off that power Sunday. He went yard in the second inning to tie the game at 1-1 in just his third major-league contest. The 23-year-old catcher also showed the ability to play small ball, making a productive out in the sixth to drive in another run. Bailey slashed just .196/.300/.333 in 14 contests with Triple-A Sacramento to begin the season, but he's now poised for a chance to share time with Blake Sabol behind the dish in the majors while Joey Bart heals from a groin injury.

J.D. Davis - Slugs homer in win Davis went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, a double, a walk, and two runs scored in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Impact Davis put the Giants ahead 4-2 with his blast in the third inning. He'd hit a rough patch recently, going 2-for-19 over his previous seven contests before breaking out of the slump Sunday. The infielder is slashing .288/.363/.496 with eight homers, 25 RBI, 16 runs scored and five doubles through 43 games this season, earning a near-everyday role after initially looking like a platoon option to begin the year.

Ryan Walker - Earns win in major-league debut Walker (1-0) allowed three hits in a scoreless inning to pick up the win Sunday over the Marlins.

Impact Walker pitched the sixth inning in his major-league debut, alternating between outs and singles. He stayed on to begin the seventh, but was pulled after giving up a leadoff single. Walker pitched to a 0.89 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 23:8 K:BB over 20.1 innings across 15 appearances (three starts) for Triple-A Sacramento prior to his call-up Friday. He'll likely serve as a low-leverage reliever while he's with the Giants.

Camilo Doval - Earns 12th save Doval allowed an unearned run on two hits and struck out one in one inning to earn the save in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Impact Doval wasn't particularly sharp, but he had a three-run cushion when he entered the contest. He's allowed multiple baserunners in two of his last four outings, but he's still converted nine straight save attempts in an otherwise solid May. The closer has 12 saves overall, and he's pitched to a 2.08 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 31:10 K:BB through 21.2 innings this season.

Alex Wood - Yields four runs Sunday Wood allowed four runs on six hits and struck out five without walking a batter over 4.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Marlins on Sunday.

Impact Wood didn't stretch out much more than he did in his last start, throwing 50 of 74 pitches for strikes Sunday. Jorge Soler was responsible for driving in three of the four runs against Wood, though the Giants were able to pull ahead for good in the end. The 32-year-old southpaw now has a 4.05 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 21:8 K:BB through 20 innings across six outings (five starts) this season. Wood is projected for a tough road start in Milwaukee for his next appearance.

Logan Webb - Dealing with lingering soreness Webb has some lingering soreness in his back Sunday, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact The right-hander was pulled from Saturday's start against the Marlins after six innings with lower-back tightness, and he's experiencing some soreness a day later. Webb has yet to be sent for an MRI, and manager Gabe Kapler said "we're just not sure yet" if the imaging is necessary. The 26-year-old's availability for his next turn through the rotation remains up in the air as he continues to be evaluated.

Impact Wade will take a seat with lefty Jesus Luzardo on the mound for the Marlins. Wilmer Flores will handle first base in Sunday's series finale.

LaMonte Wade Jr. - Heading to injured list Clevinger was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday with right wrist inflammation, retroactive to May 18.

Impact The veteran right-hander was scheduled to start Monday at Minnesota but will now be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks with the wrist issue. The severity of the injury is unclear, so it remains to be seen if Clevinger will have a chance of being reinstated when first eligible in early June.

Thairo Estrada - Earns 12th steal Estrada went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 1-0 loss to the Marlins.

Impact Estrada's first-inning single was one of just three hits for the Giants in the contest. He stole second but was left stranded. The 27-year-old took a turn at leadoff with LaMonte Wade on the bench versus a lefty (Braxton Garrett) Saturday. Estrada is 8-for-25 (.320) during his six-game hitting streak, and he's maintained a .310/.358/.477 slash line with 12 steals, six home runs, 16 RBI and 28 runs scored through 43 contests overall.

Tyler Rogers - Takes fourth loss Rogers (0-4) allowed an unearned run on a hit and a walk in one inning, taking the loss Saturday versus the Marlins.

Impact The leadoff batter reached on an error, and the Marlins were able to play small ball to get him home for the only run of the game. Rogers has largely settled down after ending April on a shaky note, and he remains in a setup role. The right-hander has a 2.22 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 18:8 K:BB with two saves and eight holds through 24.1 innings this season.

Logan Webb - Removed with back tightness Webb left Saturday's start against the Marlins with lower back tightness, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Webb fired six scoreless innings while allowing four hits and two walks with seven strikeouts before he was removed from the contest. The right-hander told reporters he doesn't expect to miss his next start, and that he's not scheduled to undergo an MRI at this point. It's certainly something to pay close attention to, but it does appear for now that Webb will be good to role next week.
