GIANTS POSTCAST: WORST DAY OF 2026 SEASON SO FAR as Giants Get Swept in Philadelphia

The Locked On Giants podcast delivers a scathing postgame breakdown of the San Francisco Giants' worst day of the 2026 season, as they were swept in a doubleheader by the Phillies—losing both games in walk-off fashion. Host Eric Triple E Engel expresses deep frustration over the team's collapse, particularly highlighting a pivotal moment in the 10th inning when third base coach Hector Berg inexplicably held Drew Gilbert at third base despite a leadoff single, squandering a golden scoring opportunity. The Giants' struggles extend beyond coaching decisions, with Engel criticizing the team's overall roster flaws, especially Rafael Devers' abysmal performance—ranked as the worst first baseman in Giants history over the last 20 years by WAR—and a glaring bullpen issue centered on the overuse of ineffective closers like Ryan Walker instead of electric reliever Eric Miller. Engel calls for immediate roster and management changes, urging the Giants to trust Miller in high-leverage situations and consider DFAing Walker. The episode ends on a bleak note, questioning whether the Giants can recover from this disaster and avoid digging an insurmountable hole in the standings.
