Devers' Cove Blast & Molina's Win | MLB News

Rafael Devers crushed his 28th homer—into McCovey Cove—and Anthony Molina shut down the Reds over 4.1 scoreless innings as the Giants cruised to a 3-1 win. Drew Cavanaugh sparked the offense with a two-run single in the first, and Devers’ fifth-inning blast gave the Giants breathing room. It was Devers’ third homer in five games and his 16th at Oracle Park this season—the most by a Giant there since Barry Bonds in 2007. The Reds finally broke through in the ninth when Sal Stewart launched a solo shot, his 28th homer tying him for second among Reds rookies. Cavanaugh went 3-for-3 in his first career three-hit game, while Nate Furman added his first MLB hit. The pitching drama continued: Houser exited in the second after appearing to injure his arm, marking the second straight start where a Giants starter left due to injury (following Whisenhunt’s UCL tear). Molina earned his first win of the year. Brady Singer took the loss for Cincinnati, giving up three runs over 5.2 innings. Wednesday sees Nick Lodolo face Landen Roupp as the Reds try to avoid a sweep.
