Wilmer Flores hit two of San Francisco's four home runs and Sammy Long threw six solid innings in his first major-league start as the Giants powered their way to an 11-2 home win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday.
Flores finished with four hits while Mike Yastrzemski (two hits) and Brandon Crawford (four RBIs) each hit two-run homers for the Giants, who completed a 6-1 homestand.
Long (1-0), whose first two big-league appearances came in relief earlier this month, allowed four hits and struck out six with a walk. He gave up two runs on a homer to J.T. Realmuto.
Realmuto had three of the four hits for Philadelphia, which dropped to 13-23 away from home in 2021.
Phillies starter Zach Eflin (2-6) allowed seven runs -- six earned -- nine hits, four homers and struck out six over five innings.
The Giants jumped on Eflin out of the gate. After lead-off man LaMonte Wade Jr. reached on Rhys Hoskins' fielding error, Yastrzemski clubbed his second straight two-run, first-inning homer. Flores immediately followed by going deep to left-center field for a 3-0 San Francisco lead.
Philadelphia got within a run in the third on Realmuto's long two-run drive over the center-field wall. In the bottom of that frame, however, Crawford homered to nearly the same location, with a man on, for his 16th of the year and a 5-2 San Francisco advantage.
Flores' second homer of the game came in the fifth for the Giants, who lead the NL with 107 home runs. It was the sixth two-homer game of Flores' career.
Steven Duggar delivered an RBI double in the sixth and Crawford added a two-run double in the eighth for San Francisco, which is 18-7 since May 25.
