Carlos Rodón

Rodon (4-2) was handed the loss during Sunday's 15-6 defeat at the hands of the Cardinals, allowing eight runs on 10 hits and one walk with three strikeouts in 3.2 innings. Rodon struggled from the start, surrendering four runs in the first inning and four more in the fourth before being pulled in what was easily his worst outing. The eight runs surrendered exceed the seven the 29-year-old had given up through his first six starts, nearly doubling his ERA from 1.80 to 3.49 in the process. Also of concern is the three strikeouts Rodon has tallied in two of his last three outings, though a 12-strikeout performance is sandwiched between. He'll look to get back on track against San Diego next weekend.

Carlos Rodón matched his season high with 12 strikeouts in six innings and the San Francisco Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 8-5 on Monday night. Mauricio Dubón had three hits, including his second homer in three days, and drove in three runs as the Giants won their eighth straight against the Rockies dating to last season. Austin Slater added a pair of singles.

Last week, the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants did battle for the first time in 2022, with LA sweeping the two-game set. One of those contests featured a win over San Fran’s “ace” in Carlos Rodón, who was their marquee signing this offseason. Not...

SAN FRANCISCO -- The path to 107 wins last year was paved in part by the Colorado Rockies. The Giants took 15 of their 19 games against the Rockies last year, including their final seven, and outscored them 125-60. Their first meeting of 2022 was more of the same. Mauricio...

Last year, during their historic 107-win campaign, the Giants feasted on the bottom-feeders. San Francisco went 17-2 against the last-place Arizona Diamondbacks. The Giants took 15 of 19 against the fourth-place Rockies. That’s an .800 winning percentage against the National League West’s have-nots. This isn’t last year’s NL...

The Colorado Rockies continue their NL West road trip tonight in the Bay Area against the San Francisco Giants. After losing two of the three games in Arizona, the Rockies will need to find their groove (read: offense) tonight in order to put up a fight and have any shot at winning this series.

Rodon (4-1) earned the win over Colorado on Monday, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out 12 over six innings. The left-hander had Colorado batters guessing throughout the contest, racking up 23 swinging strikes and tying a season high with 12 punchouts. He gave up a pair of runs in the fifth inning but didn't allow any extra-base hits and kept the Rockies off the scoreboard in each of his other five frames. Rodon's ERA actually increased to 1.80 despite the quality start, and he pushed his record to 4-1 on the campaign. He has been everything the Giants hoped he would be when they acquired him in the offseason, as he leads MLB with 53 strikeouts while stepping into the ace role on the staff. He'll look to keep rolling in a projected start in St. Louis this weekend.

Trea Turner and Carlos Rodón may be enemies as part of the rivalry between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants, but that couldn’t be further from the truth off the field. The two are close friends, which dates back to their time playing collegiately at North...

The Dodgers and Giants rivalry carries a little extra meaning this year. After San Francisco dethroned Los Angeles from their run of National League West titles, they’re very much looking to get back. Dave Roberts himself said that he took it personally that they took them out in 2021.

Well, Los Angeles Dodgers fans, you’re in for another dog fight during the 2022 season with the San Francisco Giants. Unless there are drastic occurrences that flip the script, it’ll likely be a battle down to the wire between the two division rivals. There were a number of...

LOS ANGELES -- The Giants were leaking oil as they left Oracle Park on Sunday. The first night this year against the rival Los Angeles Dodgers didn't do anything to get them back on track. Julio Urias threw six shutout innings against a depleted lineup and the bullpen took it...

Rodon (3-1) took the loss during Tuesday's 3-1 defeat at the hands of the Dodgers, allowing two runs on three hits and two walks with three strikeouts in six innings. Rodon pitched well despite the loss Tuesday, surrendering both runs on a Chris Taylor single in the second inning and recording his third quality start in five turns. The two earned runs mark a season high while the five total baserunners match one as Rodon has now permitted two walks in every start as well as three hits in all but one. The biggest difference Tuesday was the decline to three strikeouts from an average of 9.5 through his first four turns. Rodon will most likely make another start this weekend against St. Louis.
