Camilo Doval slams door; Giants snap skid with win over Braves originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Star closer Camilo Doval hasn’t received many opportunities lately.
The Giants, 2-8 in their last 10 games, called his name in a big spot in the eighth inning to slam the door on San Francisco’s much-needed 4-3 win over the Atlanta Braves on Saturday.
The Giants mostly cruised through another bullpen game until Taylor Rogers walked two batters in the eighth. Giants manager Gabe Kapler called Doval’s name with one out to face Braves star infielder Austin Riley.
