Carlos Rodón left the game with a 5-2 lead, but Jarlín García allowed his first earned runs all year in the next inning.
PHILADELPHIA — The Giants failed to sweep the scuffling Philadelphia Phillies, and their loss in the series finale Wednesday night was a lesson in domino effects.
Pumping 98 mph, Rodón struck out the heart of the Phillies order — Rhys Hoskins, Nick Castellanos and Alec Bohm — in the fifth but had run his pitch count up to 98 after defensive miscues extended the previous inning. It was a painful reminder that the matchup featured the two worst defensive teams in the majors, according to the defensive runs saved metric. It also gave Kapler a tough choice to make in the sixth.
