Sam Hentges: Breaking News
Earns hold Sunday
Hentges picked up a hold and struck out two in a scoreless inning during Sunday's 10-1 win over the Athletics. Hentges entered in the seventh inning and required just 10 pitches to get through the frame, throwing seven for strikes. After undergoing shoulder surgery in September 2024 and knee surgery in August 2025, the 29-year-old southpaw returned to big-league action May 10. He has turned in four scoreless outings this season, allowing one hit and three walks while striking out five in 3.1 innings.
Comes off IL
The Giants reinstated Hentges (knee/shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Sunday. The left-hander hasn't pitched in the majors since 2024 with Cleveland, as he underwent shoulder surgery late that year and knee surgery in August 2025. Hentges recorded 32 holds with a 2.93 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 155:42 K:BB across 138 innings from 2022-24 with the Guardians and could eventually fill a setup role in San Francisco.
