The Giants’ 5-1 loss featured more San Francisco blunders than runs.

CINCINNATI — In a game that started with a confrontation and was delayed by rain for more than two hours, the Giants kept waiting for a punch from their lineup that never came.

The Reds, who still own MLB’s worst record even after Friday night, were without their No. 3 hitter, Tommy Pham, who was scratched minutes before the rain-delayed first pitch over a pregame altercation in which he slapped Joc Pederson in the face. Yet, it was the Giants who left Great American Ballpark early Saturday morning looking worse than the worst team in the majors.

Of Rodón’s three runs, one came on a solo shot from Brandon Drury. But another scored from second base on a swinging bunt. Second baseman Donovan Walton fielded Tyler Stephenson’s third-inning dribbler and tried to flip it from his glove to first baseman Wilmer Flores, but it went over his head, then Flores threw wildly to home plate.

In their last game, a 9-3 win Wednesday against the Mets, the Giants beat up on a rookie pitcher making his second MLB appearance. They couldn’t do the same to 24-year-old fireballer Graham Ashcraft in his second MLB start.
