Alex Wood struggled, and the SFGiants lineup had another relatively quiet game Friday night in a 5-3 loss to the Nationals, their third straight defeat.
WASHINGTON D.C. -- The focus on Friday night at Nationals Park was on the future. Dylan Crews, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft, agreed to terms on a contract with a massive signing bonus and will be introduced in the coming days, and he soon will have company.
If the season ended today, the Washington Nationals would pick fourth in the draft, but they still can play spoiler, and that’s been the case against the Giants this season. Alex Wood struggled and the lineup had another quiet night as the Giants lost 5-3 on their first of three games in the nation’s capital.
The loss was their third straight on this trip. They’re 1-3 this season against the last-place Nationals.Sign up for NBC Bay Area’s Housing Deconstructed newsletter. Rookie Jake Irvin's best start of the season came in early May in San Francisco, and on Friday he had his longest start in the big leagues. Irvin threw 6 2/3 innings, easily setting a career-high with 111 pitches, and allowed three runs on five hits.
The Giants finally chased Irvin by putting runners on the corners in the seventh, and Wilmer Flores' pinch-hit walk against reliever Jordan Weems loaded the bases for Casey Schmitt. But the rookie swung through a 96 mph fastball, ending the threat. The Giants went down quietly from there.
