Giants Win 5-1 Over Dodgers on 10th-Inning Grand Slam

The San Francisco Giants defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-1 in an intense MLB game decided by Patrick Bailey's grand slam in the 10th inning at Oracle Park. This victory marks the Giants' strong resurgence, winning 14 of their last 18 games and moving back into wild-card playoff contention after being sellers at the trade deadline. Giants pitcher Justin Verlander delivered a strong performance with a 2.44 ERA over his past 10 starts, effectively limiting the Dodgers' offense despite a solo home run by Michael Conforto. Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto, coming off a near no-hitter, allowed an early run but then retired 20 consecutive batters, demonstrating excellent control. The game ended controversially when a foul tip call was overturned, leading to Bailey's walk-off grand slam that snapped the Dodgers' four-game winning streak. The Dodgers' NL West lead remains 2½ games ahead of the Padres, who also lost their game.
