Giants Crush Phillies, Devers Shines

0:00On April 9th, the San Francisco Giants shut out the Phillies, five to nothing in their series finale at Oracle Park. Rafael Devers provided all the firepower, crushing a three run homer in the sixth to break a scoreless tie. His second long ball in the team's first. Ten home games and capping it with an RBI single in the Afe. Earlier this week, starters Tyler Mahal and Aaron Nola both tossed five scoreless innings in a pitcher's duel. Willie Automay sparked the rally with a blooper double. His fifth two-bagger over three games. The first Giants to do that since Buster Posey back in June. 2013 Giants fans finally got something to cheer after a rough start, marking the team's first back to back home wins this season. At five and eight overall, they grabbed the crucial series victory right before an 11-day road trip hitting Baltimore, Cincinnati, and Washington. In the Afe, a while-thoring error by Phillies Reliever, Jose Alvarado, let Automay score from first on a botched-bund play, pushing the lead to four.
