SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS NEWS

Curt Casali - Delivers lasting blow in win Casali went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Monday's 5-4 win over the Phillies.

Impact Casali went hitless in his first three at-bats, but he made it count when it mattered most. The catcher launched a two-run home run off Andrew Bellatti in top of the 10th inning, giving the Giants a 5-3 lead heading into the bottom of the frame. The long ball was his fourth of the season, all of which have come in the month of May. Due to Joey Bart's struggles so far this season, Casali could see himself earning more at-bats moving forward if he can stay hot.

Camilo Doval - Grabs eighth save Monday Doval earned a save after he pitched one inning, surrendering an unearned run while striking out a batter in Monday's 5-4 win over the Phillies.

Impact Called upon to protect a 5-3 lead in the bottom of the 10th inning, Doval allowed the inherited runner on second to score via a one-out sacrifice fly by Alec Bohm, but he held on to strike out Mickey Moniak to end the contest immediately after. The right-hander now has eight saves on the season, converting eight consecutive opportunities after blowing a save April 8 versus the Marlins. Doval has been a little shaky lately, giving up five runs (three earned) over his last 3.2 innings, but he still remains the favorite for saves with the Giants moving forward.

Logan Webb - Pitches into ninth frame Webb tossed eight innings, giving up three runs on four hits while striking out 10 in the victory over the Phillies on Monday. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Webb was unable to limit the homers in this one, giving up three solo shots and tarnishing what was an almost perfect performance. Most notably, he entered the ninth inning with a 3-2 lead, but he allowed a game-tying home run to Kyle Schwarber to open the inning and was forced out of the contest. The 10 strikeouts were a season high for the right-hander and he has now given up three or fewer runs in four straight starts and all but one of his 10 outings in 2022. Webb now owns a 3.52 ERA and 1.16 WHIP with 50 punchouts over 61.1 frames this year.

LaMonte Wade Jr. - Begins baseball activities Wade (knee) has begun hitting, running and throwing, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Impact Wade has only appeared in 10 games this season, a run which was sandwiched in between two trips to the injured list with knee issues. It's certainly a positive to see him resume a variety of baseball activities, but it's not clear when the Giants expect him to return to action.

Austin Slater - Takes batting practice Slater (wrist) took batting practice with his teammates prior to Monday's game in Philadelphia, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Impact Slater will be eligible to return from the injured list Thursday. The Giants haven't officially confirmed that he'll do so, but the fact that he's with his teammates on the road trip suggests a minimum-length absence may be in play.

Evan Longoria - Homers again Sunday Longoria went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Reds.

Impact Longoria's eighth-inning blast gave the Giants their first lead in a game that didn't see them record a hit until the seventh inning. The third baseman's hitting streak is up to six games, a span in which he's hit all four of his homers this year while going 8-for-22 (.364). Overall, he's at a .240/.269/.520 slash line with 10 RBI, six runs scored and a pair of doubles in 15 contests.

Camilo Doval - Shaky in non-save situation Doval allowed two runs on two hits and struck out one in one inning during Sunday's 6-4 win over the Reds.

Impact Doval entered the game with a four-run lead in the ninth inning. He gave up a two-run home run to Albert Almora before finishing off the appearance. Doval hasn't converted a save since May 17, pitching just three times since then and allowing four runs (three earned). The right-hander owns a 3.44 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 23:9 K:BB across 18.1 innings. He's logged seven saves and an 0-2 record while serving as one of the Giants' top closing options.

John Brebbia - Grabs third win Brebbia (3-0) allowed one hit in a scoreless inning to earn the win Sunday versus the Reds.

Impact Brebbia pitched the seventh inning and the Giants pulled ahead with a six-run rally in the top of the eighth. All three of Brebbia's wins have come in his last seven outings. The right-hander has allowed three runs (two earned) in 6.1 innings during that span. He has a 2.49 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 21:5 K:BB while adding three holds in 21 appearances spanning 21.2 innings.

Alex Cobb - Whiffs eight in no-decision Cobb allowed two runs on four hits and three walks while striking out eight in six innings during Sunday's win over the Reds. He didn't factor into the decision.

Impact Cobb allowed 13 runs on 20 hits in 11.1 innings over his last two starts, but he righted the ship against the Reds' lackluster offense Sunday. However, the right-hander was forced to settle for the no-decision since the Giants failed to record a hit until the top of the seventh inning. Following Cobb's quality start, he has a 5.73 ERA, 47:12 K:BB and 1.49 WHIP in 37.2 innings over his first eight starts of the season. He tentatively lines up to make his next start on the road against Miami on Friday.
