Giants Post-game: San Francisco Giants fall to Los Angeles Dodgers 2-1, Giants’ dream season ends
SAN FRANCISCO — The Giants outlasted the Dodgers in a division race for the ages. But they couldn’t hold off their archrivals when it mattered most.
Cody Bellinger delivered a go-ahead single off rookie reliever Camilo Doval in the ninth inning to lift the Dodgers to a 2-1 win in the decisive Game 5 of the National League Division Series on Thursday night at Oracle Park, ending the Giants’ historic season in the most heartbreaking of fashions.
Doval entered Thursday riding a 19 1/3-inning scoreless streak over his previous 18 appearances, but he fell into trouble in the ninth, when he hit Justin Turner and then gave up a single to Gavin Lux that put a pair of runners on for the Dodgers with one out and the game tied, 1-1. That brought up Bellinger, who exorcised a miserable season by shooting a 1-2 slider to right field for a shift-busting single that drove in Turner and put the Dodgers ahead.
