San Francisco Giants closer Camilo Doval, once an All-Star, faces uncertainty after a challenging 2024 season. Giants President Larry Baer's season-ending letter highlighted the team's young talent but notably omitted Doval, raising questions about his future.

Doval's performance dipped significantly mid-season, leading to a demotion to Triple-A. Despite a high strikeout rate, his control issues and poor ERA have made him a potential trade candidate as his salary is set to increase.

The San Francisco Giants defeated the San Diego Padres 7-6, highlighted by a six-run fourth inning featuring home runs from Matt Chapman, Jerar Encarnacion, and Luis Matos. This win marked the Giants' first winning record in San Diego since 2021 and increased their lead in the season series to 6-4.

Despite leading 7-1, the Giants nearly let the game slip away as the Padres scored three runs in the seventh inning due to defensive errors. Erik Miller earned the win, while Joe Musgrove took the loss after allowing six runs in just over 4 innings.

Blake Snell, the reigning NL Cy Young winner, had a rough start, exiting after just 42 pitches, as the San Francisco Giants overcame a shaky first inning to win 3-2 against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Patrick Bailey was the hero for the Giants, hitting a walk-off double in the ninth, driving in all three runs.

River Ryan impresses in his major league debut with the Dodgers, allowing one unearned run in 5 1/3 innings. Teoscar Hernández drives in three runs for a 3-2 victory over the Giants. Daniel Hudson earns his seventh save as the Dodgers extend their win streak to four games. Ryan's strong performance showcases his potential in the MLB.

Giants defeat Guardians 4-2 with clutch pitching performance, despite Cleveland's 11 hits and 5 walks. Seven pitchers led by Erik Miller and Camilo Doval emerge heroes, securing a win. Melvin lauds bullpen's resilience in escaping multiple jams.

San Francisco gains momentum, nearing .500 with recent wins. Returns of Snell and Ray on the horizon. Triumph boosts pitching staff morale mid-season.
