Giants' Doval secures third consecutive save in sweep of Phillies.

The San Francisco Giants swept the Philadelphia Phillies with a 7-4 win on Wednesday, thanks to another strong performance from their bullpen, which allowed only three runs over 15 2/3 innings during the series. Closer Camilo Doval converted three saves in three days to lock down the club’s first sweep of the year. Despite having already pitched on back-to-back days, Doval told the Giants his arm felt good and he’d be available to pitch if needed. With an off-day looming on Thursday, manager Gabe Kapler felt a bit more comfortable extending Doval, who now has a 2.29 ERA over a team-high 20 appearances and is tied for second in the Majors with 11 saves this year.
