Casey Schmitt's Heroics Save SF Giants, But Jung Hoo Lee's Injury Casts Shadow

  • Summary

  • Casey Schmitt had gone hitless in his first 12 plate appearances of 2024, but he sure picked a good time to collect hit No. 1. With two outs and two on in a tie game in the bottom of the 10th, Schmitt delivered a clutch walk-off ground-rule double that gave the San Francisco Giants a much-needed win (and series win—their second straight) against the Cincinnati Reds. Kyle Harrison got the start and gutted out five innings with three runs allowed, solid considered he walked five and hit a batter.But the SF Giants' injury woes continued in a major way, with Jung Hoo Lee suffering a shoulder separation in the top of the first on a leaping effort at the wall. Lee has been a strong defender who's consistently squared the ball up all season for the Giants. He's hit into back luck and was just coming back from a sore foot after fouling a ball off of it in Denver. The Giants have lost seven players to the injured list in the last week, including key contributors such as Lee, Jorge Soler, Michael Conforto, Patrick Bailey.There was some positive injury news, however. Blake Snell made a rehab start for Single-A San Jose and struck out seven over four perfect innings. He threw an immaculate inning in the first and struck out seven of the first eight hitters he faced. Right now the Giants have Logan Webb, Jordan Hicks, Kyle Harrison, Keaton Winn, and Mason Black in their rotation. It's an intriguing list of names, but adding Snell back into the fold should really help the Giants moving forward, and don't forget about Alex Cobb and Robbie Ray eventually joining the starting staff as well.Find and follow Locked On Giants on your favorite podcast platforms:🎧 Apple Podcasts http://apple.co/3ycRK3U🎧 Spotify http://spoti.fi/3Bak0pN🎧 Google Play https://bit.ly/3D356mr🎧 Overcast https://bit.ly/3wqZsbg🎧 Megaphone https://bit.ly/3wGGcXDThe best daily San Francisco Giants podcast.
