Phillies score twice in ninth to stun Giants in Game 1 of DH
Apr 30, 2026; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; San Francisco Giants pitcher Logan Webb (62) throws a pitch during the second inning against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. Mandatory Credit: Bill Streicher-Imagn Images Bryson Stott delivered a game-tying triple in the ninth inning and scored on Justin Crawford's infield single as the Philadelphia Phillies rallied to nip the visiting San Francisco Giants 3-2 on Thursday afternoon in Game 1 of a day-night doubleheader.
Kyle Schwarber hit his 350th career home run for Philadelphia, which improved to 2-0 since Don Mattingly took over for Rob Thomson as manager earlier in the week. The Phillies had lost 11 of 12 prior to the managerial change.
The Giants finished with eight hits - three by Heliot Ramos and two apiece by Matt Chapman and Casey Schmitt. Logan Webb allowed one run and seven hits in seven innings and was in line for the victory before Ryan Walker blew the save in the ninth.
San Francisco will try to split the twin bill Thursday evening in what appears to be a bullpen game for both teams.
With Philadelphia trailing 2-1 in the ninth, Adolis Garcia led off with a single and scored easily on Stott's one-out hit into the right-field corner. Walker (0-1) recovered to retire Edmundo Sosa, but Crawford followed with a grounder to the left side and beat out shortstop Willy Adames' one-hop throw to first.
Phillies starter Cristopher Sanchez allowed two runs and four hits in 6 2/3 innings. He struck out seven and walked three before exiting after 85 pitches. Three relievers held the visitors scoreless, including Chase Shugart (1-0), who recorded the final out of the ninth.
San Francisco jumped on Sanchez for two runs in the first inning, capped by Schmitt's single that made it 2-0 just four batters into the game.
Philadelphia answered right back on Schwarber's 10th homer of the season - a long blast into the right-field seats - but that was the lone offensive highlight for the hosts until the final frame.
Webb gave up a single to Crawford with one out in the seventh, but the Phillies' rookie was thrown out by Patrick Bailey trying to steal second. Webb then retired Rafael Marchan to end the inning, keeping San Francisco ahead 2-1.
Erik Miller logged the eighth for the Giants before the Phillies rallied against Walker in the ninth.
