Rafael Devers and Jung Hoo Lee launched three-run home runs, powering the San Francisco Giants to a decisive 9-2 win against the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday. The Giants' offense was formidable, with Devers and Casey Schmitt driving in runs early in the third inning before Lee's blast to right field extended their lead to 5-0. Luis Arraez added another run-scoring single in the fourth, and Devers sealed the Giants' victory with his 22nd home run of the season, which leads the team.

Robbie Ray was the star on the mound for San Francisco, delivering a stellar performance by pitching six scoreless innings. He struck out five batters, allowed only six hits, and threw just 80 pitches before being relieved. This outing continues Ray's impressive streak, as he has maintained a 1.04 ERA and a 4-0 record over his last seven starts, covering 43 1/3 innings.

The Angels' pitching struggled throughout the game. Starter Ryan Johnson (2-5) gave up eight runs on eight hits in just 3 1/3 innings. Catcher Tyler Heineman even pitched an inning of relief, allowing no hits. Los Angeles managed to score two runs in the seventh inning, with Mike Trout driving in their first run via a bases-loaded double play. However, Trout, Zach Neto, and Jo Adell were removed from the game due to the significant deficit.
