Joc Pederson lined a bases-loaded single to right field with no outs in the last of the 11th inning Sunday afternoon, giving the San Francisco Giants their second straight walk-off win over the visiting Boston Red Sox, 4-3 in the interleague series finale.
After Tristan Beck had held the Red Sox without a hit in both extra innings, the Giants plated courtesy runner Patrick Bailey as Casey Schmitt was hit by a pitch and Brandon Crawford bunted for a single, setting up Pederson's game-winner off former teammate Mauricio Llovera .
The win, the Giants' fourth in their last five games, gave San Francisco a series win after three days of tightly contested, one-run games.Down 2-1, the Red Sox jumped on Giants reliever Tyler Rogers for a leadoff, pinch-hit double by Jarren Duran and a one-out, two-run home run by Justin Turner, flipping the one-run advantage in the visitors' favor.
Thanks to a strong 1-2 effort of opener Scott Alexander and bulk-innings reliever Ross Stripling, the Giants took a 2-0 lead into the seventh. But Adam Duvall homered, his ninth of the year, leading off the inning against Stripling, triggering the late scoring. The Giants scored single runs in the second and fifth to take their two-run lead. Consecutive hit batsmen by Red Sox opener Brennan Bernardino set the stage for an RBI infield out by Casey Schmitt in the second. In the fifth, Schmitt singled and scored on Wilmer Flores' RBI single.
Alexander got the better of Bernardino in the duel of openers, shutting out the Red Sox without a hit for 1 2/3 innings. Bernardino allowed one run and one hit in one-plus innings.The loss was Boston's second straight after five consecutive wins.
