San Francisco Giants vs. Athletics: Game Highlights

Tyler Fitzgerald also hit a solo homer, and Rafael Devers and Wilmer Flores each had two hits to help back an uneven but effective outing by San Francisco starter Hayden Birdsong.

One night after setting a season high with four RBI, Adames stayed hot at the plate to help the Giants take two of three from their former Bay Area rivals.

Adames walked to force in a run in the first inning, hit a solo home run off A’s starter Jacob Lopez leading off the fourth then walked again with the bases full in the fifth.

It’s the first time that a Giants shortstop has had three RBI in consecutive games since Rich Aurilia in 2000.

Tyler Soderstrom had two hits including his 15th home run for the A’s.

Birdsong (4-3) pitched around traffic most of the evening and didn’t allow a run until Soderstrom’s solo home run leading off the fourth. He had six strikeouts and overcame control problems to win for the first time since June 1.

Spencer Bivens and All-Star reliever Randy Rodríguez each retired three batters. Camilo Doval allowed a run in the ninth before getting Jacob Wilson to ground out and complete the five-hitter.

Lopez (2-5) allowed four runs and five hits in 4 1/3 innings.

Key moment After issuing a bases-loaded walk on a checked-swing, Lopez retired the next eight batters including seven consecutive swinging strikeouts.

Key stat Birdsong walked five batters, none of which scored.
