“It’s huge to get a series win versus LA and get a chance for a sweep,” successful pitcher and former Dodger Alex Wood stated.

Wade and Davis drove in 5 runs apiece, whereas Brandon Crawford had 4 of the Giants’ 17 hits.

San Francisco did most of its harm within the fifth, sixth and seventh innings.

Luis Matos drew a leadoff stroll within the fifth, stole second and took third on Bobby Miller’s errant pickoff throw. Matos scored on Crawford’s RBI single, snapping Miller’s streak of scoreless innings at 20 1/3.

“The offense was rolling, just putting balls in play against a really good pitcher,” Davis stated. “Lots of guys coming again within the dugout have been complimenting him on how nice of stuff he was and the way we would have liked to make the changes.”

Miller (3-1) then hit Casey Schmitt and Wade adopted along with his fifth homer of the season for a 4-0 lead.

“Not really many guys swing first-pitch curveball off of me,” Miller stated. “Hats off to him, it was a really good hit.”

Crawford’s RBI single prolonged the result in 5-0 within the sixth. Davis blasted the primary pitch from Alex Vesia 441 ft to heart with two outs for a 9-0 lead.

“It was 5-0, it was just an opportunity for me to ambush him,” Davis stated. “He left a fastball middle away and I didn’t try to pull it, I didn’t try to fillet it to right field, I stayed through it.”

Wood stated, “That was a dagger. For sure, it changed the whole game.”

Davis is coping with a Grade 1 proper ankle sprain, so the grand slam gave him somewhat extra time to get across the basepaths.

“Definitely made it easier just to go 30, 40 percent around the bases and jog around than to have to sprint around,” he stated.

The Giants tacked on three extra within the seventh, with Patrick Bailey’s two-run double and Wade’s RBI single off Nick Robertson. They added three extra within the ninth.

Wood (2-1) allowed three hits in 5 innings, struck out 4 and walked none. The right-hander got here off the injured record earlier within the day after coping with a again pressure.

“Just glad to be back,” Wood stated. “I feel really good.”

Tristan Beck earned a four-inning save.

Miller gave up seven runs and 7 hits in 5 2/3 innings. The right-hander struck out 5 and walked three in his fifth profession begin.
