Giants have lost 8 of 10, allowed 16+ hits in 2 of past 3 games, hitting .192 w/ RISP since July 1.
SAN FRANCISCO — If Oselvis Basabe’s at-bat in the fourth inning Monday night looked foreign, it’s because the Rays’ rookie shortstop did something few, if any, Giants have done this season. With two on and two outs, Basabe put on a masterclass of situational hitting.
When an out of any kind would have kept the game knotted at zero, Basabe’s single drove in the Rays’ first two runs and was only the beginning of a barrage of hits as they sent San Francisco to its eighth loss in its past 10 games, 10-2. The Rays’ 18 hits were the most the Giants have allowed in a game this season, including the bandbox environment in Mexico City, and came only two days after they surrendered 16 in a loss to the Rangers.
San Francisco, meanwhile, was limited to six hits, just one with runners in scoring position. Five of them came from Thairo Estrada, who drove in both of the Giants’ runs, and Michael Conforto, who remained hot with his third consecutive multi-hit game. But it was more of the same from the rest of San Francisco’s anemic offense, which wasn’t able to punish Rays starter Tyler Glasnow for any of the three walks he issued over six one-run innings.
