The San Francisco Giants dropped the final game before the All-Star Break to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday, falling 5-2 in extra innings despite a game-tying pinch-hit home run in the ninth from Luis Matos.

The 30-year-old was an All-Star with Baltimore in 2021 when he hit 30 home runs, a career-high. He also hit for a career-best .291 average that season. But with Baltimore out of contention, it is highly likely he is traded at the deadline. The Dodgers could potentially find a fit for him. They will likely be adding at the deadline.

But their average runs allowed (4.63) ranks 23rd, sandwiched between two much less ambitious teams: the Chicago White Sox (22nd) and Miami Marlins (24th). Dave Roberts expects improvements all around.

Both the San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers are looking for a series win with a victory on Sunday.

Logan Webb allowed six runs and a splash hit to Shohei Ohtani, but Jung Hoo Lee and Willy Adames each tripled and drove in three apiece.

In a moment where the San Francisco Giants television broadcast was celebrating his stellar efforts against the hated Dodgers, Mike Krukow used that moment to call on the Hall of Fame to put a Dodger in the Hall of Fame.

It marked the 65th home run into the water by an opponent in Oracle Park’s 25-year history and 171st in all — and 35 of those belong to home run king Barry Bonds.
