SAN FRANCISCO — Luis Matos has impressed together with his poise since debuting with the Giants on June 14, however the 21-year-old outfielder made a few rookie errors on Saturday afternoon.
Matos was picked off at first base by D-backs right-hander Merrill Kelly after reaching on a one-out single within the fourth inning. Then he overthrew the cutoff man on a deep fly ball to middle area within the sixth, permitting two runners to maneuver into scoring place.
But Matos made up for these errors with one ferocious swing of the bat, launching his first profession house run — a go-ahead two-run blast off Kelly within the sixth — to carry red-hot San Francisco to a 7-6 win over Arizona at Oracle Park.
After popping out on prime within the back-and-forth affair, the Giants (44-33) have received 12 of their previous 13 video games to drag inside 1 1/2 video games of the first-place D-backs (46-32) within the National League West.
The division rivals traded leads 3 times over the primary 5 innings earlier than Matos put the Giants forward for good within the sixth. After Brandon Crawford reached on a leadoff single, Matos snapped a 5-5 tie by hammering a 2-0 fastball from Kelly into the left-field nook for the milestone blast, changing into the youngest Giant to homer since Matt Williams in 1987.
“I was really excited, more than anything because it came at home,” Matos stated in Spanish. “I knew it had the distance to go out. I just wanted to make sure it stayed fair.”
Matos, who’s ranked because the Giants’ No. 3 prospect by MLB Pipeline, is understood primarily as a contact hitter, however he flashed his energy potential on his first homer, which left his bat at 101 mph and traveled a Statcast-projected 354 toes. He’s scored 11 runs by his first 10 profession video games, matching Willie McCovey for essentially the most in franchise historical past.
“It feels like [Matos is] going to be able to put the ball in play,” supervisor Gabe Kapler stated. “He’s obtained actually good bat-to-ball abilities, a very good understanding of the place the candy spot is on the bat. That confirmed with the line-drive single to proper and, after all, the massive house run that put us up for good. It’s good to have a hitter down on the backside of the lineup that may try this sort of harm.
“I don’t necessarily consider him to be a big power hitter right now, but he may develop into one.”
Kapler stated Matos’ skill to return by for the Giants regardless of his struggles earlier within the sport speaks to his psychological toughness and his skill to remain locked in on the plate.
“I think that’s worthy of noticing,” Kapler stated. “The first part of the game doesn’t go particularly smoothly, but he kind of stays in control with his wits about him and is able to do some damage for us later in the game. It’s a good signal.”
Lourdes Gurriel Jr. introduced the D-backs inside one run with a two-out RBI single within the prime of the ninth, however nearer Camilo Doval struck out Pavin Smith with a pair of runners on to finish the sport and safe his NL-leading twenty second save. The Giants used seven relievers of their twelfth bullpen sport this season, with twins Taylor and Tyler Rogers combining for 3 scoreless innings to offer a key bridge to Doval within the ninth.
With his first house run now beneath his belt, Matos has crossed off most of his large milestone moments, although he’s nonetheless ready for one notably significant one. A local of Bobures, Venezuela, Matos has but to play in entrance of his mother and father, Jose Luis and Yoelis, since signing with the Giants as an adolescent in 2018.
Matos’ mother and father just lately traveled to the U.S. Embassy in Brasilia, Brazil, to use for a visa to go to their son, however they had been declined, placing these plans on maintain. Matos stated he plans to present his first hit and his first house run balls to his mother and father, who hope to strive once more quickly.
“They told me to stay focused on playing baseball,” Matos stated. “God willing, they’ll be here soon.”
