PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Bryson Stott lined a tying triple with one out in the ninth inning and scored the winning run on a two-out infield single by rookie Justin Crawford, rallying the Philadelphia Phillies to a 3-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants in the first game of a doubleheader Thursday.
Kyle Schwarber launched his 350th career homer for the Phillies (11-19), who have won consecutive games for the first time since a four-game winning streak from March 31 to April 4. They've won both games under interim manager Don Mattingly, who took over when Rob Thomson was fired Tuesday.

Adolis García reached on an infield single against Ryan Walker (0-1) to start the bottom of the ninth. Brandon Marsh struck out before Stott tripled into the right-field corner on the ninth pitch of the at-bat, handing Walker his second blown save this season.
Stott held at third base on Edmundo Sosa's groundout, then scored as Crawford barely beat out a slow grounder to shortstop Willy Adames for his third hit of the game.
Both of Philadelphia's walk-off wins this year have ended with RBIs by Crawford. His 10th-inning single beat Washington on April 1.
Chase Shugart (1-0) struck out the only batter he faced to earn the win.
San Francisco starter Logan Webb pitched seven strong innings, allowing only a first-inning homer to Schwarber, his 10th of the season.
Phillies left-hander Cristopher Sánchez gave up doubles to the Giants’ first two hitters, Heliot Ramos (three hits) and Matt Chapman. Luis Arraez's grounder knocked in Ramos from third, and Chapman scored on Casey Schmitt's single to make it 2-0.
The second game of the split doubleheader scheduled for Thursday evening was a makeup of Wednesday night’s rainout.
RHP Adrian Houser (0-3, 7.36 ERA) starts the nightcap for San Francisco.
Philadelphia was set to open with LHP Tim Mayza (0-1, 3.94 ERA) in a bullpen game after RHP Zack Wheeler (0-0, 3.60) was scratched from his second scheduled start since returning from thoracic outlet decompression surgery last September.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Elon Musk on Thursday sparred with an attorney for OpenAI during his third day of testimony in the contentious trial over the company's pivot from nonprofit status to a for-profit venture valued at hundreds of billions of dollars.
The trial centers on the 2015 birth of the ChatGPT maker as a nonprofit startup primarily funded by Musk. It pits the world’s richest person against Sam Altman, a fellow OpenAI co-founder he accuses of betraying promises to keep the company as a nonprofit dedicated to humanity’s benefit.
Tempers have flared on both sides of the high-stakes trial, as the morning began with an existential discussion about the future of humanity — complete with references to “The Terminator” movies — and how much witness testimony would focus on AI safety.
“Your client, despite these risks, is creating a company that is in the exact same space,” Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers told Musk's lawyers, referring to the billionaire's xAI, which launched in 2023. People, she said, “don't want to put the future of humanity into Mr. Musk's hands,” and instructed the parties not to discuss the dangers of AI to humanity during the course of the trial.
“This is not a trial on the safety risks of artificial intelligence. This is not a trial on whether or not AI has damaged humanity,” she said. “It could be one day in a federal court in this country that we may have that trial. That is not this trial and we are not going to get sidetracked on that issue in this trial.”
On the stand, Musk has taken issue with the cross-examination by opposing attorney William Savitt, accusing him of asking misleading questions designed to trick him and the jury. At one point Thursday, Savitt asked Musk about earlier testimony where he said that as long as investor profits were capped, OpenAI wasn’t in violation of agreements to keep it a nonprofit.
“It depends on how high the cap is,” Musk replied. Savitt then said that “wasn’t your complete answer yesterday right?” In response, Musk said “few answers are going to be complete, especially if you cut me off all the time.” He added that if the cap is “super high,” then OpenAI is “really a for-profit at that point.”
Lawyers for OpenAI have rejected the allegations brought in Musk’s civil lawsuit and said there were never promises that the company would remain a nonprofit forever. The company has argued Musk’s legal challenge is aimed at undercutting OpenAI’s rapid growth and bolstering Musk’s xAI, which he launched in 2023 as a competitor.
The trial in federal court in Oakland, California, is scheduled to continue through late May. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers excused Musk from the witness stand Thursday, but he may be called back later.
During the cross-examination, Savitt also asked Musk about his companies — Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink and X — and whether they were all for-profit. Musk replied yes, and affirmed that be believes all of these companies are “socially beneficial.”
Savitt then asked why Musk hasn't started a nonprofit himself, eight years after he left OpenAI.
“I thought I had started a nonprofit with OpenAI but they stole it,” Musk replied, adding that this is “the entire basis of this lawsuit.”
