The San Francisco Giants secured a 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday night, avoiding a three-game sweep. Logan Webb pitched six scoreless innings, while Mike Yastrzemski hit a two-run homer. Luis Matos also made significant contributions, including a highlight-reel grab. This win marks the Giants' first victory over the Dodgers in 2024 and places them just 1.5 games out of the final Wild Card spot. Despite numerous injuries, the Giants are looking to their young players like Matos to step up. Webb gave an honest answer about the importance of the win, stating, "I think we were kind of embarrassed about how we played the first few games."

Sounds like Luis Matos & Marco Luciano are going to get some burn at CF and SS. “If Marco is up here, he’s our shortstop” said Melvin. Did mention some other options in center but Farhan talked of getting Matos to be more aggressive defensively & make the most of his tools on D.
The Giants activated Jorge Soler from the injured list and recalled Mason Black from Triple-A in a series of pregame roster moves https://t.co/JRPa2fxAX0
Jorge Soler is here at Oracle Park with Marco Luciano for some early BP. No roster moves yet but I don’t think Soler is about to drive to Sac on a Friday afternoon.
The San Francisco Giants could turn their season around in 2024 thanks to the strength of their young starting pitching. There’s just one big problem with that: nobody might let them, writes columnist @Bruce_Jenkins1. https://t.co/GsDALNpBcl
To patch an injury-wracked lineup, the Giants have called up Luis Matos, Heliot Ramos, Casey Schmitt, Blake Sabol, Brett Wisely and Marco Luciano in the hope that the farmhands are ready to help. https://t.co/UR0TARPUGn

Barely halfway through May, the Giants are confronted with two questions that could shape this season and beyond: Can the kids keep the team afloat, and can they use this opportunity to make their promotions permanent? https://t.co/nS0UN2W3Ee

The Giants are at a crossroads, and the next few weeks are going to go a long way in determining how they finish this year - and more importantly, where they go from here. My latest for @SFGate- https://t.co/Z3I7r5L72J
"He's a showman." The Giants hope to get Luis Matos up to speed at center field with Jung Hoo Lee out, and he showed promise last night against the Dodgers (via @PavlovicNBCS) https://t.co/eXVoyQbFe7
https://t.co/fVCcWRIaqB On the last day of the ‘21 season, Bryce Harper issued an organizational challenge. “We need our minor leaguers to be better.” Three years later, the kids are part of the core, and a once top-heavy #Phillies roster is super-deep. From @PhillyInquirer ⬇️⬇️
Sometimes the Giants sure look like a bad team. But they're not a bad team. Or shouldn't be. Especially when Logan Webb is pitching. Which mattered a lot on Wednesday. How much will it matter over the next fourth months? https://t.co/qUzC7vR1hy

The Giants won 4-1. Logan Webb led them to their first win over the Dodgers in 2024. Despite all of the bad baseball and injuries, they'll somehow enter a needed off day just 1 1/2 games out of the final Wild Card spot.
