Ryan Walker - Grabs first saveWalker picked up the save Wednesday against Philadelphia, pitching a third of an inning in an 8-6 victory.

ImpactFacing Trea Turner as the potential tying run in the 10th inning, Walker was able to coax a flyout to earn the first save of his Major League career. While he seems unlikely to get regular save chances going forward, Walker's been reliable of late, allowing just one earned run over his last 11 appearances (15.2 innings). The 27-year-old right-hander now sports an impressive 2.14 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 53:13 K:BB across 46.1 innings this season.

Camilo Doval blows another save, but new shortstop Paul DeJong salvages win vs. PhilliesPHILADELPHIA — How’s that for an introduction?

AUGUST 24, 2023•NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Paul DeJong - Homer, four RBI in Giants debutDeJong went 3-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Wednesday's 8-6 win over the Phillies.

ImpactDeJong made an immediate impact in his Giants debut, launching a two-run homer off Michael Lorenzen in the fourth inning before putting San Francisco ahead 7-5 in the 10th inning with a two-run single. It was quite a performance from DeJong, who was DFA'd by the Blue Jays after going just 3-for-50 (.060) in his last 15 games. Overall, the 30-year-old DeJong's slashing .216/.273/.378 with 14 homers, 40 runs scored and 37 RBI across 355 plate appearances between San Francisco, Toronto and St. Louis this season. While it's been hard to rely on consistent fantasy production from DeJong, he could see a regular role with the Giants while Brandon Crawford (forearm) is sidelined.
