Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. hit just his second home run of the season on Wednesday, but he made it count. Tatis belted a hanging slider from Chase Petty over the left-field wall to walk off the Reds.
1. Giants cap comeback with walk-off grand slam
The Giants seemed to be heading toward getting swept by the Nationals through seven innings on Wednesday. San Francisco entered the bottom of the eighth inning trailing 9-1. The Giants then put together a five-run inning with the help of solo homers from Rafael Devers and Matt Chapman. Washington scored once in the ninth inning to extend the lead back to four runs. The first three batters reached base against reliever Gus Varland in the bottom of the ninth inning, cutting the deficit to three. Jung Hoo Lee singled to load the bases, setting the stage for Bryce Eldridge. The rookie yanked a 2-0 slider from Mitchell Parker into the right field seats to finish the wild comeback.
2. Callihan gets on the board
Pirates outfielder Tyler Callihan joined the big-league club at the end of May. He’s played sparsely since being promoted, but put together a huge game against the Dodgers yesterday. Callihan took Shohei Ohtani deep in the fourth inning for the first homer of his career. He then erased a two-run deficit in the eighth inning with a three-run shot off Kyle Hurt. Pittsburgh entered the seventh inning down five runs, but scored eight times in their final two trips to the plate.
3. Scherzer climbs the strikeout list
Blue Jays righty Max Scherzer made his return to the mound on Wednesday against the Phillies. The veteran had been sidelined since late April with forearm and ankle injuries. Scherzer wasn’t at his best against Philadelphia, allowing five earned runs over 3 1/3 innings. He did pick up four strikeouts, bringing him to 3,503 for his career. Scherzer is the 11th pitcher to reach 3,500 punchouts. He needs just seven strikeouts to move past Walter Johnson and into the top 10 on the all-time leaderboard.
