BOX SCORESAN FRANCISCO — The schedule hasn’t been kind to the Giants over the season’s first month, but it provided a get-right spot for the struggling lineup at the perfect time and the group took advantage Friday. The Washington Nationals have the worst ERA in the National League by a full run, and the Giants wasted no time jumping on their overmatched pitching staff. Eight Giants had a hit through the first two innings and all nine had reached base, and they kept going from there. The Giants won 10-5, and for the first time all year, they did it with power. They were last in MLB with nine homers coming into the game, but they hit three at Nationals Park and added three doubles. Overall, they hit 13 balls at least 100 mph. The scoring started with a three-run homer from Heliot Ramos, his first of the year. Matt Chapman and Rafael Devers also drove in runs during a six-run second inning.
