Giants’ Ramos Makes History with Three-Homer Performance in 10-1 Victory
San Francisco Giants outfielder Heliot Ramos delivered a historic performance on Monday, July 6, powering his team to a decisive 10-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays. Ramos became the first player in the franchise’s history since 1920 to hit two home runs and record a “little league” home run—caused by fielding errors allowing a runner to circle the bases—in a single game.
Ramos finished the night 3-for-5 with five RBIs and three runs scored. His offensive outburst began in the first inning with a triple that turned into a score following a throwing error by Blue Jays shortstop Andrés Giménez. He later added a three-run home run in the sixth inning and a solo shot in the eighth to cement the victory.
The game was broadcast regionally, highlighting the on-field product for the team’s media partners. While the Giants’ ownership structure is private, the broader sports media landscape includes publicly traded entities like Comcast Corporation, the parent company of NBCUniversal. Through its Regional Sports Networks, Comcast broadcasts games for various MLB teams, connecting performances like Ramos’s to regional audiences. Shares of Comcast were trading at $23.38 on Tuesday, reflecting a slight decline.
Manager Tony Vitello praised the slugger’s display of power, noting the electricity of the second home run specifically. Ramos attributed his success to his pre-game routine and a self-prepared breakfast of sausages, eggs, toast, and hash browns.
