(AP Photo/Jeff Chiu) SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Gabriel Arias hit a go-ahead homer in the sixth inning and doubled in the ninth on a night when San Francisco celebrated new slugger Rafael Devers at every chance, and the Cleveland Guardians spoiled the fun by beating the Giants 3-2 on Tuesday. Jung Hoo Lee singled to start the bottom of the ninth against Emmanuel Clase, and Devers singled one out later before Heliot Ramos walked to load the bases for Dominic Smith. He flied out and Casey Schmitt struck out to end it as Clase earned his 15th save. Advertisement Devers went 2 for 5 with two strikeouts in his Giants debut after being acquired in a trade from the Boston Red Sox on Sunday. He hit a go-ahead double in the third inning only for the Guardians to answer on Carlos Santana's RBI single in the fourth. Devers struck out in the first and fifth. Schmitt and Mike Yastrzemski hit consecutive singles to start the eighth against Hunter Gaddis, then Wilmer Flores entered as a pinch hitter. Flores lined out to left fielder Steven Kwan, who fired to second to get Schmitt for the double play. Arias connected for his fifth homer off lefty Robbie Ray (8-2), who struck out five and walked two, allowing three runs on five hits over six innings. Austin Hedges had a sacrifice fly in the third for Cleveland. Slade Cecconi (2-3) struck out six over five innings for the Guardians, who were coming off a sweep by the Mariners in Seattle and had lost five of six overall. Advertisement Key moment Aside from Ramos' rocket throw home from left field to save a run with a double play to end the top of the ninth, for the Giants the best part of the day began long before first pitch when many of Devers' new teammates took time ahead of their pregame routines to attend his introductory news conference. Key stat The Giants came in with a .667 winning percentage (16-8) all-time vs. Cleveland, their best against any opponent. Up next Cleveland LHP Logan Allen (4-4, 4.28 ERA) faces Giants RHP Justin Verlander (0-3, 4.33), who returns from the injured list to make his 11th start this season. ___ AP MLB:

Abbott authors shutout as Reds improve to 5-0 vs. Guardians
June 11 - Andrew Abbott threw a three-hitter for Cincinnati's first complete-game shutout in four years and Spencer Steer drove in the only run to give the visiting Reds a 1-0 victory over the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday night. Steer's single in the fifth inning off Slade Cecconi (1-3) scored Will Benson and helped Cincinnati earn its fifth consecutive win. The Reds have won six of their last seven and stand two games above .500 for the first time since May 3. Abbott (6-1) had five strikeouts and one walk as he threw 77 of his 110 pitches for strikes. The left-hander gave up hits in the second, fifth and ninth innings, but only let two Guardians get as far as second base. Cleveland, which is 0-5 against its in-state rival this season, put the potential tying run on twice in the ninth. Steven Kwan led off with a walk, but he was erased by David Fry's double-play grounder. Jose Ramirez then singled before Abbott got Carlos Santana to fly out to left to complete his masterpiece. Ramirez's hit extended his career-long on-base streak to 36 games. The six-time All-Star owns hits in 31 of 32 games since his surge began on May 6. Cecconi posted a career-high-tying eight strikeouts in five innings. The right-hander gave up one run on four hits and walked one to fall to 0-3 lifetime against the Reds. Reds center fielder TJ Friedl robbed Fry of an extra-base hit in the fourth, making a running grab just below the top of the wall. He crashed into the padding and spent some time prone on the ground before shaking off his discomfort. One inning later, Guardians first baseman Carlos Santana made back-to-back defensive gems with two on. He caught Matt McLain's foul down the line after being hit from behind by second baseman Angel Martinez, then dove to snare Friedl's bunt attempt. The Reds promoted left-hander Joe La Sorsa from Triple-A Louisville before the game. He filled the roster spot of pitcher Brent Suter, who was placed on the bereavement list. --Field Level Media
