Schmitt powers SF Giants to win over Dodgers with first career grand slam
Briefly

Casey Schmitt's grand slam showcased his developing power, leading the San Francisco Giants to a 6-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. This victory not only marked Schmitt's second home run of the season but also positioned the Giants in a tie for the top of the NL West. The game featured a combination of patience and early walks, culminating in three home runs from the Giants, which sparked excitement in the dugout. Willy Adames also contributed with his own home run, upping his performance metrics on the road trip, emphasizing the team's offensive improvement.
It wasn't just a swing that headlined the Giants' three homers on Friday night as they beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 6-2.
The walks were free. The homer was earned. Yamamoto tossed Schmitt a 1-1 splitter; Schmitt sent the offering towards Glendale.
I think he's in a good spot, Chapman said pregame. The way he's swinging the bat, I think he's going to really start to come into his own offensively.
Adames has raised his OPS from .584 to .635 - still below average, but trending upwards.
