The Story

The San Francisco Giants handed the Los Angeles Dodgers a 6-2 defeat at UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium on May 12, 2026, in a result that defied the DiamondIQ model's pre-game estimate of a 68 percent chance of a Dodgers win. San Francisco scored in four separate innings, building their advantage methodically before a decisive seventh-inning push, with the model's win probability for Los Angeles ultimately collapsing to zero by game's end.

The pivotal sequences came against Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who was touched for three home runs across the third and fifth innings. Eric Haase connected first in the third, a solo shot that shifted win probability 10.6 percent in San Francisco's favor, and then Haase went back-to-back with Harrison Bader in the fifth, contributing swings of plus-13.0 and plus-12.4 percent respectively. Shohei Ohtani answered in the bottom of the third with a home run off Adrian Houser that added 10.6 percent to the Dodgers' win probability, briefly keeping Los Angeles within reach. But Jung Hoo Lee's double off Blake Treinen in the top of the seventh, the single largest win-probability swing of the night at plus-16.2 percent, keyed a three-run frame that effectively closed the door on any Dodgers comeback.

Among the top individual contributors by WPA, Haase finished as the game's most impactful offensive player with a combined WPA of plus-20.6 and an RE24 of plus-1.5, while Lee posted plus-14.0 WPA and plus-1.5 RE24. On the pitching side, Adrian Houser led the Giants' staff with a WPA of plus-15.3, limiting damage after Ohtani's home run and allowing San Francisco's offense to maintain its edge through the final innings.
