Giants fans get the full experience of Willy Adames with a win for Walk-off in Home Open

SAN Francisco – The ball found Willy Adames All Game. Or, while he said it after the 10-9 victory of the giants over the Mariners in the opening of the house, “they were trying to kill me today”.
He was not wrong. In an arc of seven jokes between the sixth and the seventh inning, a trio of Mariners hit a 99.5 mph driving line or more hard on its reverse side, everyone deviate from his glove for a single. Adames also created one of the More refined and more temperate jump catches From a Shorttop that Oracle Park has ever seen, which is not a statement It can be launched slightly. He stole his first base as a giant and immediately scored on a single by Jung Hoo Lee in the fourth inning, and doubled the Lamonte Wade Jr house after a triple with two interiors in the fifth inning.
Adames also came out with the winning race in third place and one at the bottom of the ninth, so it was not just a physical damage that the Mariners were threatening him. It was also mental anguish. With the giants that dragged on two outs at the bottom of the 11th, Adames had the opportunity to leave the game, which would have given him two reasons to launch and turn all night.
He didn’t make the ending from the game.

In his first game at Oracle Park, an exhausted crowd had the full experience of Willy Adames, and then they had a little more experience Willy Adames to take home and refrigerate.
“I love being in the middle of everything,” he said after the game. “Even when they are trying to kill me.”
If the history of the Giants of 2025 before Friday’s opening was a clean and crunchy baseball, this was the game that reminded you that the baseball style is a suggestion, not a guarantee. It was as if the team was filling all the dirty and ugly baseball in a lot this season, just to escape before the first shot, while everyone was distracted by the easel of 144th Fighter Wing. Clean and crunchy, baseball no.
Justin Verlander allowed seven basic runners in his 2 inning 1/3, with a 13 -shooting walk in Cal Raleigh who hurried his release. Of the seven rescuers used, the giants, six of them have allowed at least one runner and two have allowed more runs. The giants were 6-to-28 with runners in a score position and left 16 runners on the base, which was the Most of a home game since September 2021. What would have been the first mistake of the season became a single after a score decision and about 30 seconds later, they actually made their first mistake of the season. About five seconds later, there was a double theft that Patrick Bailey could not take a grip to take a shot. When the Mariners took the command at the top of the 11th inning, they did it on a wild field with two outs.
Some runners were not advanced and some runners were not taken home after they had been advanced. There were Strikeouts in Moscow ball situations and there were flight balls in land ball situations. When the game was paused for a review of Replay, Camilo Doval launched a shot to stay free, and went to the bottom. Nobody was safe from bad baseball. Nobody.
By the way, the giants won their fifth game in a row. They are 6-1, which is their best record to start a season since 2010. It is the type of record that cannot exist only on clean and crunchy baseball. A winning percentage of .857 also requires bad victories to feed. Those are those with all the calories.
There was a lot of good baseball to go around, of course. An output of 10 shots and a Walk-off victory cannot exist even without good things. Matt Chapman was on the base four times and hit a long house race. After starting the 0-Per-16 season, Wade had two doubles and a triple, building his Homer hit by Pizzico in Houston. Bailey had three shots, including a double advantage in the ninth inning that would have been a home race in any other baseball field of the Major League. It is as if the 24 -footed wall in the field of the right center became jealous looking at Barry Bonds and Dusty Baker celebrate 25 years at Oracle Park before the game. The real main character in the whole story of Oracle Park was Oracle Park and not forgetting it.

And while the giants were giving up a little of that clean and crunchy baseball, they still had a lot to offer. They stole four bases on Friday, giving them 10 in the season and have not yet been captured. Adames’ single winner in the 11th would have been a single at the score level if not for Tyler Fitzgerald who stole the second in a situation where everyone in both courses expected to steal.
“We also had some key (stolen bases),” said manager Bob Melvin after the game. “We are not just stealing them to steal them. We are stealing them when there are opportunities to score the races, and we had the opportunity to do it. We will not come across out when (the opponent launchers) are very fast on the plate, but we feel that we have enough guys who when they foresee and will look for certain counts, breaking the balls, anything, we try to get some good moments.”
What the giants are doing – both in terms of volume and success – has no precedents in the era of San Francisco. You have to return to the 1960s to find a team that stole all the bases so early, and you have to return to the last season to the Candlestick Park to find a team that has been successful in their first 10 attempts.

Praise the ball for putting the giants in place to remove them. Praise the long ball for bringing them to extra inning in the first place. Lazo the ugly baseball and fill it in the sack, but praise the clean and clear baseball that seems even better on the contrary. The giants and the Mariners exchanged Jabs and Body blowing the whole game, and everyone slipped on half a dozen banana skins, but ended with the second walking victory in a Oracle park in as many years.
He remembered that baseball will not always be cute, but sometimes it is better this way. Willy Adames has almost died for this game. It is right that it was he who sent a fucked crowd happy.
