Giants 3rd baseman Matt Chapman to begin rehab in a week

Yamamoto tossed Schmitt a 1-1 splitter; Schmitt sent the offering towards Glendale. Schmitt’s grand slam wasn’t just his second home run of the season, but his second home run since stepping in for Matt Chapman, who will be on the injured list for several weeks due to right hand inflammation.
The Giants were one out away from wasting another excellent start from Logan Webb. Chapman shifted the vibe. With a two-run, walk-off home run, Chapman delivered a 3-2 win over the Atlanta Braves, keeping San Francisco undefeated in four tries since Buster Posey’s roster shakeup in the process.
Any hope that the San Francisco Giants will get their Gold Glove third baseman back in 10 days is no longer in the cards.
