Giants' Trent Harris: Collects first career save
Harris gave up a hit in a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday to record his first career save in a 7-6 win over the Cardinals. He didn't walk or strike out a batter.
The Giants didn't look like they'd have a late lead to protect most of the game, but a six-run rally in the eighth inning flipped the script, and manager Tony Vitello decided to see if Harris was up to the task in his 14th career MLB appearance. The 27-year-old right-hander doesn't have premium velocity, but he's been effective since being promoted in early August and sports a 2.81 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 21:7 K:BB through his first 16 innings. The Giants will likely continue to mix and match with their bullpen over the final weeks -- four different relievers have collected their last four saves -- but Harris appears to have earned Vitello's trust in a high-leverage role, pocketing four holds in his last seven appearances prior to Wednesday's save.

Giants' Blade Tidwell: Taken off hook for loss Wednesday
Tidwell didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 7-6 win over the Cardinals, surrendering five runs (four earned) on five hits and two walks over four-plus innings. He struck out two.
The right-hander seemed headed for his third straight loss when he got chased from the mound after putting the first three batters aboard in the fifth inning, but the Giants bullpen escaped the jam with minimal damage, and their offense then put together a six-run rally in the eighth. Tidwell has been alternating good starts with bad ones of late, and over his last six outings he's wobbled to a 5.76 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 25:16 K:BB through 29.2 innings. He'll try to maintain that pattern with a better performance in his next start, which is set to come on the road next week in a rematch with the Cards.

Giants' Spencer Bivens: DFA'd by San Francisco
The Giants designated Bivens for assignment Wednesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
The move makes room on the Giants' 40-man roster for Duncan Davitt, who was claimed off waivers from Atlanta. Bivens has spent most of the 2026 season in Triple-A, where he has a 4.92 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and a 72:28 K:BB over 75 innings.

Giants' Grant McCray: Logs steal Tuesday
McCray went 1-for-2 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Cardinals.
McCray hadn't stolen a base since Aug. 3 versus the Rangers. The reserve outfielder continues to see a part-time role, primarily working in the corner outfield when he gets starts. Over 74 plate appearances, he's batting just .148 with a .563 OPS, two home runs, five steals, three RBI, 11 runs scored, one double and one triple.

Giants' Christian Koss: Swats homer Tuesday
Koss went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Cardinals.
Koss has four homers this season, all coming over his last 12 contests. He's batting .250 (10-for-40) with seven RBI in that span. The infielder is batting .219 with a .594 OPS, nine RBI, 22 runs scored, five doubles and two stolen bases over 164 plate appearances this season, so the recent power surge is a bit of a surprise. Koss should continue to see steady playing time in the infield to close out the campaign, though that could change if Willy Adames (elbow) or Marcelo Mayer (forearm) come off the injured list.

Giants' Bryce Eldridge: Homers in Tuesday's win
Eldridge went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Cardinals.
Eldridge went deep in the first inning to give the Giants an early lead. He's hit safely in nine of last 10 games, going 14-for-37 (.378) with 11 RBI in that span. The 21-year-old is batting .265 with an .819 OPS, 16 homers, 49 RBI, 47 runs scored, 21 doubles and one stolen base over 100 contests this season as he continues to see regular time between first base and designated hitter.

Giants' Joel Kuhnel: Earns save for third different team in 2026
Kuhnel allowed one run on two hits over 1.1 innings, recording no walks or strikeouts while earning the save in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Cardinals.
It's not often a pitcher has a chance to log a save for three different teams in the same year, but that's what Kuhnel has achieved in 2026. He's allowed one run over 2.2 innings across his three appearances for the Giants, allowing four hits and one walk in that span. Kuhnel is at a 4.74 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 23:13 K:BB through 38 innings between the Giants, Brewers and Athletics, adding seven saves, six holds and a blown save. Regular closer Dylan Smith struggled in a blown save Tuesday, but it's not yet clear if Kuhnel has worked his way into the high-leverage mix for the last three weeks of the Giants' campaign. Kuhnel is the 11th pitcher to earn a save for San Francisco this year.

Giants' Landen Roupp: Six scoreless frames in win
Roupp (9-13) allowed two hits and four walks while striking out two over six scoreless innings to earn the win over the Cardinals on Tuesday.
Roupp has gotten back on track lately, allowing just two runs on eight hits and eight walks over his last 16 innings. He's picked up two wins in that span, which follows a stretch in which he was winless over six starts. Roupp has a 4.00 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 139:72 K:BB through 150.2 innings over 28 starts this season. The right-hander is projected to make his next start in a rematch with the Cardinals in St. Louis next week.

Giants' Victor Bericoto: Beginning assignment Wednesday
Bericoto (knee) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Bericoto has gradually built up his workload over the past week as he recovers from a bone bruise in his right knee, and he's now been cleared to test his knee in a true game setting. He'll likely need a handful of minor-league at-bats after spending a little more than two weeks on the injured list, but he could still return sometime in mid-September.
