Matt Chapman Activated from IL, Sparks Giants' Skid-Snapping Victory

Giants third baseman Matt Chapman was activated from the 10-day injured list on Saturday after recovering from right hand inflammation, immediately returning to the lineup and batting sixth against the Milwaukee Brewers. His presence was credited with inspiring San Francisco's much-needed 7-1 victory, snapping a four-game losing streak, with manager Bob Melvin emphasizing his impact on taking pitches and drawing walks. This marks Chapman's second IL stint this season for the same hand issue, having previously missed 33 games while slashing .229/.337/.423 with 16 homers and 44 RBI across 96 games.
