“We had a few chances earlier in the game, but it came down to that final inning and one big hit,” commented Giants manager Bob Melvin.

Blake Treinen nabbed the win, including a crucial play where he picked off pinch-runner Tyler Fitzgerald at first base during a scoreless ninth inning. J.P. Feyereisen secured his first save with three outs.

The Dodgers maintained their impressive defensive streak, extending a franchise record by allowing four runs or fewer in 20 consecutive games, winning 16 of them.

“We’re playing at our best level,” Hernández noted. “Our starting pitchers have been exceptional, keeping us in games even when we’re not ahead early on. With our strong lineup, we always have a chance to come back.”
