New-Look SF Giants Edge Padres 3-2 After Winless Road Trip
Trevor McDonald allowed one run in seven innings and the Giants snapped a six-game skid with help from Casey Schmitt’s home run.
- Trevor McDonald pitched seven crisp innings in his season debut on Monday night, leading the San Francisco Giants to a 3-2 victory over the San Diego Padres. The win snapped the Giants' league-high six-game losing skid.

- Padres RHP Walker Buehler takes the mound Tuesday as the series continues. Manager Vitello praised McDonald's command and the "stellar battery" performance with Rodriguez, though he withheld commitment to a long-term spot for the rookie.
