Giants' Heliot Ramos suffers mind-boggling baserunning mistake in loss to Pirates: 'Mental error'

BOTTOM LINE: The San Francisco Giants look to stop their six-game home slide with a win against the Tampa Bay Rays. San Francisco has a 29-32 record at home and a 59-63 record overall. The Giants have a 26-44 record in games when they have given up at least one home run.
Giants first. Heliot Ramos called out on strikes. Rafael Devers strikes out on a foul tip. Willy Adames walks. Dominic Smith singles to shallow center field. Willy Adames scores. Casey Schmitt
Their losing streak has hit six games. They’re 59-63 on the season. And they’ve now lost 14 of their last 15 games at home, something that hasn’t been done since 1901. Right-hander Landen Roupp pitched three-plus innings in his first start back from the injured list, allowing five earned runs and striking out five batters.
Jose Iglesias hit a two-run homer in the second inning, Jackson Merrill connected in the eighth for insurance, and the San Diego Padres beat the struggling San Francisco Giants 5-1.
