The Giants were helped by the Red's closer Alexis Diaz being on the IL and then the Red using their better relievers to hold the 6th, 7th, and 8th innings. The Reds then turned to a 31-year old journeyman reliever who has spent most of his career being a near-zero WAR RP. He had a pretty good 2023, but lowkey sucked in 2024. Two on, two out and he goes after Flores with a steady stream of fastballs.
Giants come back with four runs in the 9th inning to win on opening day.
