SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Joey Bart’s routine pop fly turned into a tiebreaking RBI double and the San Francisco Giants beat Philadelphia 4-3 on Tuesday night, sending the Phillies to their third straight loss.
With a runner on first and two outs in the fourth inning, Zack Wheeler got Bart to pop up just behind first base. Phillies first baseman Kody Clemens lost track of the ball in the air and a sliding attempt at a catch by second baseman Bryson Stott was unsuccessful, allowing Casey Schmitt to score.
LaMonte Wade Jr. followed with an RBI single to give San Francisco a 4-2 lead.
Kyle Schwarber homered to center with two outs in the ninth to bring Philadelphia within a run, but Camilo Doval struck out J.T. Realmuto to earn his 10th save in 11 chances.
The Giants’ bullpen combined to allow one run over 5 2/3 innings after starter Alex Cobb lasted just 3 1/3. Cobb matched a career high with five walks and surrendered two runs before being removed in the fourth.
Taylor Rogers (1-2) pitched a scoreless inning with two strikeouts, earning his first win as a member of the Giants.
Wheeler (3-3) struck out eight in six innings, but allowed four runs on nine hits and a walk in the loss.
Thairo Estrada and Michael Conforto had RBI singles for San Francisco, which beat Philadelphia for the fifth straight time.
Stott had an RBI single for Philadelphia, which left 12 men on base and went 1 for 11 with runners in scoring position.
ROSTER MOVES
The Phillies optioned LHP Bailey Falter to Triple-A Lehigh Valley and recalled RHP Erich Uelmen. Falter allowed six runs, all unearned, in 4 1/3 innings in Monday night’s loss to fall to 0-7.
“Basically, it’s just a reset,” Philadelphia manager Rob Thomson said. “Go down there, get outs, get some confidence.”
TRAINER’S ROOM
Giants: RHP Luke Jackson (recovery from Tommy John surgery) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday after pitching a scoreless inning for Class A San Jose on Sunday.
UP NEXT
RHP Taijuan Walker (3-2, 5.75 ERA) starts the series finale Wednesday afternoon for the Phillies. The Giants haven’t named a starter.
