While Casey Schmitt and Patrick Bailey were held hitless, Michael Conforto delivered a 3-run HR and Sean Manaea turned in his most effective outing of 2023.
MINNEAPOLIS — Since Casey Schmitt and Patrick Bailey were called up, the rookies have seemingly done all the Giants’ heavy lifting. In a 4-1 series-opening win against the Twins on Monday, they handed the baton back to the veterans.
“LaMonte’s at-bat to lead off the game was really a tone-setter for the day,” Kapler said. “Arguably the most important at-bat we had, maybe the one that won the game for us.” Sabol was batting fifth, only his third time that high in the lineup, a middle-of-the-order spot that Kapler said he earned. With a pair of walks in addition to his double, Sabol raised his OPS against right-handed pitchers to .912 .
Batting sixth, Schmitt made the Giants’ first out of the game, grounding out softly to the pitcher on the third pitch of his at-bat, despite three of the first five batters drawing walks. After Conforto and Sabol drew back-to-back walks to lead off the sixth, the rookies struck out in consecutive at-bats.
Sean Manaea turned in his most effective outing since signing a two-year, $25 million free-agent contract with the Giants this offseason, lowering his ERA to 6.89 with 3⅔ shutout innings to help the Giants win for the sixth time in seven games. Recording eight of his 10 outs via strikeouts, Manaea relied on a steady diet of mid-90s heaters — more than 60% of his pitches.
