River Ryan shines in his major league debut on the mound and Teoscar Hernández drives in three runs in the Dodgers' 3-2 win over the San Francisco Giants.
River Ryan handed the ball to manager Dave Roberts in the top of the sixth inning Monday night, and as he headed toward the third-base dugout, a crowd 49,576 at Dodger Stadium rose to applaud the 25-year-old right-hander, who glanced at the upper deck and tapped his chest in appreciation of the standing ovation.
“It’s a high-velocity fastball, a curveball, a slider, there’s a changeup in there … he’s a very confident young man. He's going to attack guys. There’s going to be some adrenaline, so I'm expecting him to manage those emotions once the game gets going.” Ryan looked a little wobbly to start, walking Jorge Soler to open the game and giving up a single to LaMonte Wade Jr.
