SAN FRANCISCO—Blake Snell struck out a career-high 15 over six innings, Patrick Bailey hit a tiebreaking, two-run double and the San Francisco Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 4–1 Saturday in a doubleheader opener.
Snell, the reigning NL Cy Young Award winner, struck out 15 of 18 batters. His strikeouts were the most for a pitcher this season and the most for any pitcher in an outing of six innings or fewer since at least 1901.
