San Francisco Giants overcome six-run deficit to defeat St. Louis Cardinals

The San Francisco Giants secured a 7-6 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday at Oracle Park after erasing a late 6-1 deficit. Playing without Rafael Devers, who was rested after appearing in 309 consecutive games, the Giants relied on a late offensive surge to finish the sweep. Starter Blade Tidwell struggled through four innings, allowing five earned runs including a three-run homer to Leo Bernal following a defensive interference call. The Giants trailed by five runs entering the eighth inning before putting together a rally that saw six consecutive batters reach base and score. Philip Abner provided relief innings for San Francisco, while the Cardinals were unable to hold their advantage despite capitalizing on early Giants errors.
