Guardians Win 4-2 Over Giants Behind Schneeman 3-Run Homer

Daniel Schneeman's three-run home run was pivotal in the Cleveland Guardians' 4-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants, maintaining Justin Verlander's winless streak with the team. Verlander, recently activated from the Injured List, allowed four runs in 4 2/3 innings, while Logan Allen pitched 5 1/3 innings, giving up two runs to secure the win for the Guardians. The Guardians capitalized on errors and timely hits, including an RBI single from Jose Ramirez and doubles from Kyle Manzardo, marking their first series win in San Francisco since 2005. The Cleveland bullpen, led by Emmanuel Clase who earned his 16th save, effectively shut down the Giants' offense in the later innings. The Giants struggled to convert leadoff baserunners into runs, with their recently acquired Rafael Devers going hitless in his second game. This game highlighted the Guardians' solid pitching and opportunistic hitting, extending Verlander's difficulties this season.
