Mookie Betts, Trea Turner and Freddie Freeman delivered the decisive blows in a 4-2 loss that dropped SF 15.5 games back in the NL West.
LOS ANGELES — Logan Webb said it best Friday night: “It’s an All-Star team over there.”
Only a few miles from Hollywood’s star-studded Walk of Fame , it has been more apparent than ever this series that these Giants don’t have any. Betts stole the show Thursday night with a tiebreaking homer and a dazzling game-ending catch. On Friday, it fell on Cody Bellinger, the 2019 NL MVP who is now a regular presence at the bottom of the Dodgers’ order, now that Betts , Turner and Freddie Freeman provide most of the firepower.
At least Slater has played like a superstar this month, raising his average in July to .440 with a double to lead off the game and a line-drive single the other way in the third inning — the Giants’ only hits off Dodgers starter Julio Urías. He reached base for a third time, with a walk in the fifth, but was left stranded each time.
With the Aug. 2 trade deadline a little more than a week away, Ken Rosenthal reported on the FOX broadcast Saturday that the Giants were unlikely to be major buyers or sellers, echoing president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi’s comments before the All-Star break. The upside of the Giants’ roster strategy, in addition to the expiring contracts of Longoria and Belt after this season and Crawford after next year, is that they should have ample resources.Through the first three games of this series, the Giants have scored one run against Dodgers starters. That should come as no surprise against a team whose rotation leads MLB in ERA by 0.41 points.
