Glasnow limited opposing batters to a .179 average in his first 16 starts, the third-best mark in the league, but the Giants had seven hits in 14 at-bats against him Saturday and batted around in the third, an inning in which Glasnow threw 37 pitches after throwing only 24 pitches in the first two innings.

The inning began with Glasnow’s walk to No. 9 hitter Ahmed and Jorge Soler’s RBI double to right field. Soler tried to advance on Wade’s grounder to shortstop but was thrown out at third by Rojas.

But Ramos singled to center, Bailey hit an RBI single to right, and Dodgers third baseman Cavan Biggio couldn’t get the ball out of his glove after charging Chapman’s chopper, a play that was generously ruled an RBI infield single.

Michael Conforto walked to load the bases, and Luis Matos grounded into a run-scoring fielder’s choice for a 5-2 lead before Wisely flied to end the four-run inning.

The Dodgers countered with four runs of their own in the top of the fourth, batting around against relievers Spencer Howard and Randy Rodriguez, a rally that Andy Pages sparked with a one-out walk.

 

Heyward singled to right, advancing Pages to third, and Rojas, who followed Pages’ second-inning double with a two-out RBI single, grounded an RBI infield single to the shortstop hole. Lux followed with an RBI single to right.

Biggio popped out on a bunt attempt, but Ohtani walked to load the bases. Smith beat out a slow roller to shortstop for an RBI infield RBI single, and Freeman walked with the bases loaded to give the Dodgers a 6-5 lead.

San Francisco evened the score in the bottom of the fifth when Chapman hit a one-out single off right-hander Yohan Ramirez, Conforto walked against left-hander Alex Vesia, and Wisely, who won Friday night’s game with a walk-off two-run homer in the ninth, hit an RBI single to center for a 6-6 tie.
