Going Once! Twice! Gone Again! 3 HR for Johnston
Saturday, May 24th, 2025
Anyone wearing a glove and sitting in the bleachers for today's Giants-Cardinals game had a good chance at snagging a home run ball.

San Francisco left fielder J.R. Johnston thrice sent eager fans scurrying to catch a souvenir, helping lead the San Francisco to a 6-3 win over St. Louis.

"Hey, the three homers were great, but I'm just trying to help my ballclub," Johnston said later. "I'm not going out there thinking I need another home run."

Johnston was 3-for-3 on the day with 4 RBI.

J.R. Johnston hit a solo-shot off Jorge Velázquez in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Jorge Velázquez in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Jorge Velázquez in the 4th, walked in the 7th and walked in the 9th.

This season in 43 games, Johnston has hit at a .390 clip with 69 hits, 13 home runs, 35 RBIs and 35 runs scored.
