May 6 (7-5 win): The Giants once again got off to a great start, as Wilmer Flores and Patrick Bailey both hit two-run homers in the top of the second inning. But in the bottom of the second, Justin Verlander left the game with an injury, leaving it in the hands of the Giant bullpen. Once again, it didn’t got well, as the Cubs went from a 4-0 deficit to a 5-4 lead after six innings. Seiya Suzuki had a solo homer in the third, Kyle Tucker hit a two-run homer in the fourth and Michael Busch had a go-ahead RBI single in the sixth. However, San Francisco regained the lead in the seventh. They loaded the bases with two outs and Jung Hoo Lee cleared the bases with a triple, making it 7-5. The Cubs put runners on first and second base with one out in both the eighth and ninth innings but Giant relievers Spencer Bivens and Ryan Walker came through late.

May 7 (6-2 loss): The Giants scored both their runs before the fans were in their seats, as Mike Yastrzemski doubled and Willy Adames hit his team-high-tying seventh home run of the season before an out was made. That was all San Francisco would get, however, and Robbie Ray would have another tough start to fall to 3-3. The Cubs took the lead for good in the third inning on Carson Kelly’s RBI double.
