Giants beat Dodgers 6-2 as Bader and Haase hit back-to-back homers off Yamamoto

LOS ANGELES (AP) --- Harrison Bader and Eric Haase homered back-to-back for the
tying and go-ahead runs in the fifth inning, and the San Francisco Giants beat
the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-2 on Tuesday night.
Haase tied the game with a solo shot in the third --- his first homer since May
7, 2025. He nearly went deep a third time in the seventh when Andy Pages caught
Haase's long drive at the center field wall. Bader's two-strike homer was his
first since March 30 and tied the game before Haase went deep again for a 3-2
lead.
It was the first time Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto (3-3) gave up three
homers in a game. All three came from the eighth and ninth spots in the Giants'
lineup with two outs.
Shohei Ohtani homered for the first time since April 26 for the Dodgers.
San Francisco has won four of five and three in a row for the first time since
April 16-18.
Giants starter Adrian Houser (1-4) allowed two runs and three hits in 5 2/3
innings. He struck out four and walked three in beating the Dodgers for the
first time in his career.
Caleb Kilian earned his second save with 1 1/3 innings of relief.
The scuffling Dodgers dropped their fourth in a row and ninth in 13 games while
scoring three runs or fewer in 10 of those 13.
They trailed 6-2 and had the bases loaded in the eighth before Pages flied out
to end the threat.
Yamamoto gave up five runs and six hits in 6 1/3 innings while striking out
eight.
Ohtani gave the Dodgers a 2-1 lead in the third with his seventh homer. The
two-way superstar singled, walked, struck out and grounded out. He scored the
Dodgers' first run on Will Smith's sacrifice fly in the first.
Up next
The Giants' Robbie Ray (3-4, 2.76 ERA) starts Wednesday against Ohtani (2-2,
0.97).
