Final: ATL 0 @ SF 5

Devers Goes Yard Twice, Webb Dominates in SF's 5-0 Rout

Quick Answer

Rafael Devers hit two home runs and drove in four runs as San Francisco shut out Atlanta 5-0 on June 28, 2026. Logan Webb was nearly untouchable, holding the Braves to one hit over seven innings.

The story of the night was Devers, and it wasn't particularly close. In the second inning, he launched a 404-foot shot to center to put San Francisco on the board. Later in the same frame, Drew Gilbert added a sacrifice fly to left that scored Bryce Eldridge, pushing the lead to 2-0. Atlanta's Grant Holmes had otherwise been sharp through four innings — one hit, no walks, four strikeouts — but the Giants had already done their damage.

The game's decisive moment came in the third inning, and it was emphatic. Devers connected again, this time a 359-foot homer to right that scored Luis Arraez and Casey Schmitt ahead of him, ballooning the lead to 5-0. That three-run blast swung San Francisco's win probability from 79% to 94% — a 14-point jump that effectively closed the book on Atlanta's night. When Bryce Elder replaced Holmes to start the fifth, the damage was already done; Elder allowed five hits and all five earned runs across his four innings, absorbing the full weight of the loss.

On the other side of the ball, Webb was the kind of dominant that makes opposing lineups look helpless. Seven innings, one hit, zero earned runs, two walks, six strikeouts — a performance that appears to be among the best of his 2026 season by any reasonable measure. Sam Hentges finished things off with a clean eighth inning, striking out one and allowing nothing. Mauricio Dubon's 1-for-3 night was Atlanta's lone bright spot at the plate, which tells you everything you need to know about how thoroughly Webb and company neutralized the Braves' offense. Coming off a recent incident that Devers himself called 'blown out of proportion,' the first baseman let his bat do the talking in the loudest possible way.
