SAN FRANCISCO — If the San Francisco Giants thought coming back home off a disappointing road trip would be a cure-all, they found out differently Thursday night.
The New York Mets had a five-run fifth against Giants starter Sean Manaea and touched up reliever Tristan Beck for four runs in a 9-4 win before a crowd of 24,452 at Oracle Park.
It was the sixth loss in seven games for the Giants, who fell to 6-12 and were coming off a 1-4 road trip against Detroit and Miami. The Mets, headed in the opposite direction, have won six of their last seven on a road trip that started in Oakland and then went to Los Angeles against the Dodgers. New York is 13-7.
