82nd win

The Giants pulled off one of their more improbable victories tonight, edging the Mets in a weird and wacky contest. New York starter Tijuan Walker was overpowering, his only blemish a solo shot from Kris Bryant in the 4th, but was inexplicably pulled by manager Luis Rojas in the 7th with two on and two out. Brandon Crawford then roped an RBI double that scored both runners and gave the Giants the 3-2 lead they would not relinquish. It's not like they didn't try. Two muffed pop flies in the 9th brought Pete Alonso up with two outs and the bases loaded, but an unflappable Jake McGee got the final out.
