SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Rafael Devers homered and drove in four runs as the San Francisco Giants beat Philadelphia 5-0 on Wednesday for their second consecutive shutout against the Phillies.
Willy Adames and Luis Arraez each had two hits and scored twice at the top of the batting order for San Francisco (5-8), which took two of three games from the Phillies for its second series win of the year.
Philadelphia (6-6) hasn't won a series in San Francisco since 2013.
Devers launched a three-run shot to center field off starter Aaron Nola (1-1) with two outs in the sixth inning, snapping a scoreless tie with his second homer this season.
Adames scored from first base in the eighth on a throwing error by reliever José Alvarado after he fielded Arraez's sacrifice bunt. Devers added an RBI single to make it 5-0.
Mahle pitched 5 2/3 innings, giving up three hits and four walks while striking out six. Matt Gage, Caleb Killian, Blade Tidwell and Erik Miller shut down the Phillies the rest of the way.
Gage (1-0) got two outs for his first major league win.
