Villar starring for the San Francisco team

The San Francisco Giants achieved an overwhelming victory over Chicago White Sox on Monday.


David Villar shone for the San Francisco team as he hit two home-runs, while Anthony DeSclafani tossed six scoreless innings as the Giants thrashed the Chicago White Sox with an emphatic scoreline of 12-3.

Villar hit a solo homer in the fifth and a grand slam in the ninth. Joc Pederson, Michael Conforto, Thairo Estrada, Mike Yastrzemski and Bryce Johnson also went deep for San Francisco, whichnow has the most home runs since July 2, 2002, at Colorado. The team record is eight, set at Milwaukee way bac Pederson was also robbed of a two-run drive by center fielder Luis Robert Jr.

Conforto and Estrada went back-to-back in the fifth, and so did Yastrzemski and Villar to make it 7-0.

The five home runs allowed by Michael Kopech (0-1) tied White Sox record.

The Giants struck back after losing two out three in their opening series at Yankee Stadium, and made Chicago’s first home game under new manager Pedro Grifol a real nightmare.
