\u2014 SF Giants on NBCS (@NBCSGiants) June 4, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n The slumping club gave its fans something to get excited about when it announced that top prospect, slugging first baseman Bryce Eldridge, had been promoted to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday. He\u2019s now just a 90-minute drive from a big-league home in San Francisco.<\/p>\n The 6-foot-7 Eldridge is just 20. He\u2019s ranked as the No. 21 prospect in baseball by MLB Pipeline.<\/p>\n Later Tuesday, San Francisco Giants manager Bob Melvin lamented about the pitching performances his club has watched go to waste over a 16-game stretch in which the offense hasn\u2019t produced more than four runs.<\/p>\n \u201cWe can\u2019t just say, \u2018Leave it up to the pitching and shut them out,\u2019\u201d Melvin said. \u201cIt\u2019s something that\u2019s been a problem for us for a while. Now it\u2019s another game where we don\u2019t score enough runs and put a lot of pressure on the pitching again.\u201d<\/p>\n In search of their first win of the season over the Padres in five tries, the Giants will turn to left-hander Kyle Harrison (1-1, 2.51 ERA) on Wednesday. Harrison has been involved in two low-scoring games since rejoining the Giants\u2019 starting rotation last month \u2014 a 3-0 road loss to the Washington Nationals on May 24 and a 2-0 triumph over the Miami Marlins on Friday.<\/p>\n He\u2019s made two previous starts against the Padres, going 1-1 with a 6.17 ERA. Six different Padres \u2014 including Fernando Tatis Jr., Manny Machado and Xander Bogaerts \u2014 homered off him in those games.<\/p>\n Harrison has never faced Padres prospect Brandon Lockridge, who entered Tuesday\u2019s game as a defensive replacement before delivering the first two-hit performance of his career.<\/p>\n The 28-year-old, acquired from the New York Yankees last July, insists he\u2019s starting to settle in after getting into just 12 games \u2014 with two hits \u2014 for the Padres last season.<\/p>\n \u201cConsistent (at-bats) help you get kind of in a rhythm,\u201d he said. \u201cI currently feel as good as I\u2019ve felt all year at the plate. I just feel like I\u2019m seeing the ball well, putting together some decent at-bats and hitting some balls hard.\u201d<\/p>\n Seeking a fourth consecutive win, the Padres are scheduled to send righty Nick Pivetta (6-2, 2.74) to the mound.<\/p>\n Pivetta, 32, pitched a 7-4 home win over the Giants on April 29, allowing three runs in 5 1\/3 innings. He improved his career record to 2-1 with a 5.30 ERA in six outings (three starts) against San Francisco.<\/p>\n Pivetta has gone unbeaten in his past three starts, allowing a total of just 12 hits and four runs to the Seattle Mariners, Atlanta Braves and Pittsburgh Pirates over 18 innings.<\/p>\n \u2013Field Level Media<\/p>\n When is the next San Francisco Giants game?<\/p>\n Monday, June 1st \u2013 Thursday, June 5th\u00a0\u2013 vs. San Diego Padres Thank you for reading\u00a0SactownSports.com<\/a>.
