Robbie Ray overcame five walks to hold the Seattle Mariners to just one run over six innings, Jung Hoo Lee and Matt Chapman combined for four doubles and four runs, and the San Francisco Giants won their sixth in a row Saturday night with a 4-1 home win. Pitching against the team that signed him to a five-year, $115 million free-agent deal in December 2021, Ray (2-0) surrendered a solo home run to Dylan Moore in the fifth. Ray, though, held Seattle to just three other hits — all singles — in one of his best outings since joining the Giants in a trade last season. Ray left with a 4-1 lead, having struck out two, after just his third six-inning outing since he was a 12-game winner for Seattle in

New pitching friend Bryce Miller didn’t stay sharp enough for the dull Mariners offense to overcome old pitching friend Robbie Ray.

Jung Hoo Lee went more than 300 days in between major-league games after suffering a season-ending shoulder injury in early May. It would've been reasonable to assume there was rust to be knocked off. Lee totaled three hits, scored two runs and swiped his third base of the season as the Giants beat the Seattle Mariners, 4-1, on Matt Chapman's bobblehead night, extending their winning streak to six games and improving to 7-1 for the first time since 2003. Lee, currently in the midst of a six-game hitting streak and batting .321, continued showcasing his defensive value as well, tracking down a deep drive to center field near the warning track. The season remains in its infancy, but the excitement surrounding Lee in the Giants' clubhouse is palpable.

Giants keep rolling with 4-1 win over Seattle

Even if Robbie Ray just went out there every five days and kept it competitive for five innings, the Giants easily would win that trade with the Seattle Mariners, one of many that Farhan Zaidi and Jerry Dipoto made with each other. Ray was acquired before last season for fellow veterans Anthony DeSclafani and Mitch Haniger. The Mariners sent DeSclafani to the Minnesota Twins a few weeks later, but he needed elbow surgery and it seems likely that his last appearance for the Giants in 2023 will be his last in the big leagues.

One day after being on the losing end of an 11-inning shootout, the Seattle Mariners failed to take advantage of several opportunities and lost 4-1 to the San Francisco Giants on Saturday. The Mariners left eight runners stranded and went 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position. "Tough night tonight," Seattle manager Dan Wilson said in a postgame interview Saturday. The San Francisco Giants were able to find just enough offense against Mariners starter Bryce Miller, who is still working his way to midseason form.

Long live the power of the Bobblehead Night. On an evening where the Giants distributed 15,000 bobbleheads bearing Matt Chapman's likeness, the five-time Gold Glove Award winner totaled two doubles, two RBIs and two runs scored, then turned in a vintage defensive gem to end the game the Giants beat the Seattle Mariners, 4-1. San Francisco's winning streak stands at six, and the record is 7-1.

The San Francisco Giants opened their home schedule against the Seattle Mariners this weekend, but the action on the field isn't the only thing that has fans talking. Alex the Great, a 28-pound therapy rabbit, made the rounds at Oracle Park on Saturday. The Bay Area native has been to a Giants game before, making his first appearance there back on April 22, 2021. Once Alex got caught on the TV broadcast, several clips and pictures began to circulate on social media.

Erik Miller hadn't thrown his sinker in about seven years when he took the mound at Oracle Park for his first offseason bullpen. Given how long the pitch had been dormant, he had no expectations for how the pitch would play. “There's certain guys that when you add pitches, it takes a long time,” said pitching coach J.P. Martinez. Miller, the lone lefty in the Giants' bullpen, has brought back an old pitch for his sophomore season.

A path to the MLB playoffs won't be easy for the San Francisco Giants despite their red-hot start to the 2025 season.

The San Francisco Giants picked up their sixth consecutive win with a 4-1 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Saturday at Oracle Park.

San Francisco Giants veteran pitcher Justin Verlander is trying to recover from a shaky outing. Verlander threw a dud in his home debut this season for the Giants. There is something that Verlander will cherish though from his debut. “It really was (special) but I would have liked to have done better,” Verlander said, per the Associated Press.

The Seattle Mariners are set to join a rare club in baseball history on Saturday night. The M's will face San Francisco Giants' lefty Robbie Ray, marking the third consecutive game in which they will face a former Cy Young winner.

If there was any doubt about Willy Adames' fit with the San Francisco Giants, he erased it in unforgettable fashion on Friday afternoon. In his Oracle Park debut, the newly signed shortstop delivered a two-out, two-run walk-off single in the 11th inning to cap a wild 10-9 win over the Seattle Mariners. With Luis Matos at third and Tyler Fitzgerald at second, Adames turned on the first pitch he saw — a cutter from Carlos Vargas — and sent it into right field, sending a packed stadium into a frenzy and the Giants to 6-1 on the young season. “It was amazing,” Adames said.
