Darvish fans 12, replay reversal helps Padres top Giants 3-2

San Diego (AP) — Yu Darvish struck out 12 and the San Diego Padres, helped when a replay review turned a Giants grand slam into a foul ball, beat San Francisco 3-2 on Friday night.

Darvish (3-1) allowed one run and four hits, including Buster Posey's homer, in 6 1/3 innings. He gave up a single and walked two in the seventh, and left with the bases loaded and one out.

Tim Hill relieved with a 3-1 lead and pinch-hitter Darin Ruf hit a drive near the right-field foul pole that was originally ruled a home run. After a short video review, the call was reversed to a foul.

Hill struck out Ruf a few pitches later and then fanned Mike Tauchman to end the threat.

The Giants scored in the eighth on Evan Longoria's double play grounder. Mark Melancon pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn his major league-leading ninth save.

Jurickson Profar hit a tiebreaking, two-run single in the sixth for a 3-1 lead off Logan Webb (1-2).

Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford was hit by a pitch from Darvish in the left calf in the fifth. He remained in the game to run, but was removed prior to the Padres batting in the bottom half.

Posey homered in the first. It was Posey’s sixth homer of April, the first time he has hit six homers in a month since May 2017.
