Giants Rally in Ninth to Defeat Diamondbacks

The San Francisco Giants triumphed over the Arizona Diamondbacks with a 3-2 victory, thanks to Patrick Bailey's walk-off, ground-rule double in the ninth inning, which scored Tyler Fitzgerald. Bailey was instrumental, driving in all three runs for the Giants, including a two-run single in the fourth inning. Reigning NL Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell struggled, exiting after a 42-pitch first inning marked by defensive errors, conceding two runs, only one of which was earned. Despite Snell's early exit, the Giants' bullpen held the Diamondbacks at bay with stellar relief pitching. The Giants' win marked only their second victory in eight games, highlighting a crucial comeback. The Diamondbacks' defensive lapses and the absence of key players like Ketel Marte, who might return in their next series, were significant factors in the game's outcome.
