Game Narrative and Key Moments

Trevor Rogers established a new Baltimore Orioles franchise record on August 30, 2025, becoming the first pitcher since the team moved to Baltimore in 1954 to record 10 consecutive starts of six-plus innings while allowing two or fewer earned runs. His dominant seven-inning performance dropped his ERA to 1.39 and capped an August where he posted a 1.29 ERA across 42 innings.

Pre-Game Context

Baseball Reference data shows betting markets installed Baltimore as -116 favorites despite their five-game losing streak. San Francisco entered on a six-game winning streak yet opened as +103 home underdogs. The pricing reflected the starting pitcher matchup: Rogers against rookie Carson Seymour making his first career start.

First Three Innings

Willy Adames gave San Francisco a 1-0 lead with a solo homer in the first, his 25th of 2025. The blast extended the Giants’ home run streak to 13 consecutive games, matching their longest since 2019. Twenty of Adames’ 25 homers have come with nobody on base, continuing San Francisco’s season-long struggle to get runners on ahead of their power threats.

Baltimore threatened in the second when Colton Cowser doubled to deep left-center. Seymour escaped, but his command problems were becoming evident with 40 pitches through two innings.

The third inning broke the game open. Daniel Johnson walked. After Jackson Holliday lined out, Jeremiah Jackson crushed a 97.3 mph sinker from Seymour, sending it 390 feet at 100.4 mph exit velocity for a two-run homer. Gunnar Henderson singled. Ryan Mountcastle followed with his fifth homer to deep center. Four runs scored on consecutive homers within six pitches, ending Seymour’s debut after three innings.

Middle Innings Extend Lead

Samuel Basallo led off the fourth with his first career homer off Tristan Beck’s 80.6 mph curveball. At 21 years and 17 days old, Basallo became the youngest catcher in franchise history to homer. The previous record holder was Andy Etchebarren at 21 years, 347 days in 1965. The ball traveled 375 feet with 103 mph exit velocity.

The inning continued with Johnson singling, Holliday tripling him home to deep center-right, and Henderson adding a sacrifice fly. Baltimore led 7-1 after four.

Late-Game Insurance

Baltimore’s eighth-inning rally against Matt Gage: • Basallo walked, Johnson doubled • Jackson delivered a two-run double (his 3rd and 4th RBIs) • Wild pitch scored Jackson for 11-1 lead

Bob Melvin used position player Christian Koss to pitch the ninth. MLB.com confirmed this was Koss’ third pitching appearance of 2025. He threw a 43.4 mph eephus pitch that Basallo grounded out on.

Contrasting Games at Oracle Park

The difference between consecutive nights defied logic. Thursday’s 15-8 Giants victory featured 18 San Francisco hits with every starter recording at least one. Friday brought complete reversal: five hits, one run against Rogers. Despite Baltimore scoring 11 runs, Friday’s game lasted just 2:40 compared to Thursday’s 3:07.

Strategic Elements

Rogers-Basallo Battery Approach

Rogers called approximately 60% of pitches during early counts, establishing aggressive strike-throwing patterns. In middle and late counts, he deferred to Basallo’s pitch selection despite the rookie having just 11 career games. This collaboration produced Rogers’ most efficient start: first-pitch strikes to 20 of 26 batters, 10 ground balls versus 11 fly balls, averaging just 13.1 pitches per inning.

Key Statistical Context

Jeremiah Jackson’s four RBIs came on two swings in high-leverage situations. His third-inning homer carried a Win Probability Added of +.256, while his eighth-inning double sealed the victory. Jackson has 14 RBIs over his last eight games.

Daniel Johnson scored three times despite batting .191 for the season. His ability to reach base and score ahead of Jackson and Mountcastle proved crucial in the third-inning rally.

Season Implications

Baltimore (61-75) remains eliminated from playoff contention while developing young talent for future seasons. Rogers’ 10 consecutive quality starts established a new franchise standard, and Basallo’s development suggests immediate contributions ahead.

San Francisco (67-69) saw their Wild Card pursuit damaged significantly. Their six-game winning streak ended abruptly, with solo home runs continuing to limit run production. Adames’ 25 homers have produced just 71 RBIs due to 80% coming with empty bases.

Last September’s meeting featured Anthony Santander’s walk-off homer eliminating San Francisco from playoff contention. One year later, San Francisco chases October while Baltimore plays without postseason stakes.

The series would continue Saturday before Sunday’s finale featuring Tomoyuki Sugano (10-6, 4.06 ERA) against Justin Verlander (2-10, 4.47 ERA). San Francisco needs to win remaining series to maintain Wild Card position entering September’s final month.
