Start spreading the news! The Giants are hitting today! Everyone in the lineup wanted to be a part of it in New York, New York Friday night, as the San Francisco Giants defeated the New York Yankees, 9-1, in a game called after 5+ innings due to rain.
The decision to suspend the game was made easier by an offensive explosion from the Giants, a tough four-inning start from Robbie Ray, and Yankees reliever Yoendrys Gomez walking four batters in the top of the sixth inning while complaining about the wet baseball.
Eight members of the Giants lineup either scored or drove in a run, and the one who didn’t, Tyler Fitzgerald, went 2-for-3.
