On July 25, 2026, the San Francisco Giants ended a five-game losing streak with a dramatic 10th-inning walk-off hit by Rafael Devers against the Los Angeles Angels. The play initially appeared to be a ground-rule double, scoring Jesus Rodriguez and Luis Arraez for a 8-6 victory. However, after review, it was determined that the game ended immediately when Rodriguez touched home plate, as the Giants only needed one run to win. As a result, Arraez’s run did not count, and Devers’ hit was officially recorded as a single. This decision led to disappointment among bettors, as the Giants were 1.5-point favorites, and Devers’ potential for multiple extra-base hits was negated. The Giants, currently 17 games below .500 in a competitive division, continue to struggle despite Devers’ strong performance, including a 122 OPS+ and 21 home runs.
