Willy Adames hits a 452-foot two-run home run to center field, giving the Giants a 2-0 lead in the top of the 1st inning

Goes deep in second straight game

Despite getting the Colorado Rockies at just the right time before an upcoming weekend series at the Los Angeles Dodgers, the San Francisco Giants received bad news about Matt Chapman.

Willy Adames has yet to live up to the billing of the franchise-record seven-year, $182 million contract he signed with the Giants this offseason. President of baseball operations Buster Posey had a simple, two-word message for fans when he went on KNBR’s “Murph and Markus” this past Thursday. “Be patient,” Posey said.

The Giants got a taste of their own medicine Thursday and missed a chance to head into Los Angeles tied for first place in the National League West. Uncharacteristic wildness by reliever Randy Rodriguez and an error by third baseman Casey Schmitt in the ninth inning helped contribute to a three-run ninth by the Colorado Rockies in an 8-7 win over the Giants at Coors Field.
