PHILADELPHIA — Logan Webb, the Giants’ ace, is supposed to be the pitcher who stops skids and starts winning streaks. But, with one swing from Bryce Harper, the hopes of a Webb gem capable of turning the tides were dashed not long after first pitch Sunday for the second time this road trip. Attacking the Phillies’ slugger carefully all night, Webb elevated a 1-1 changeup just enough, catching just enough of the plate, so that Harper was able to barrel it up and send it into the bullpens in right-center field, putting the game out of reach for the Giants, who lost for the fifth time in six games on this trip, 5-4. Taking a streak of 19 scoreless innings into his start Tuesday in Boston, Webb has allowed nine runs (eight earned) over his past two games. He trudged back to the third-base dugout after using his 98th pitch of the evening to record the final out of the fourth inning with his team in a four-run hole. Lasting only 3⅔ his last time out, Webb failed to complete five innings in consecutive starts

Commencement ceremonies are being held at colleges and universities across the U.S. As many campuses have been roiled by protests over the Israel-Hamas war, some school administrations have taken steps to contain disruptions during their commencement activities. The University of Michigan’s commencement was held early Saturday with a few interruptions. Ahead of the ceremony, the school had said staff and security officers were ready to respond and that interfering with commencement would not be considered free speech. Here is a look at some of the commencement ceremonies: NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY In Boston, commencement ceremonies for Northeastern University were held peacefully in the rain Sunday at Fenway Park. Some students waved small Palestinian and Israeli flags, but those were dotted among flags from India, the U.S. and other nations. Undergraduate student speaker Rebecca Bamidele drew brief cheers when she called for peace in Gaza. Police last month arrested about 100 protesters at Northeastern when they broke up an encampment on the Boston campus. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN Police officers stood nearby as some graduates holding Palestinian flags and shouting pro-Palestinian messages protested during commencement at the University of

OAKLAND — The Athletics’ six-game win streak is history. Control issues and a sore back limited starting pitcher Joe Boyle to just an inning Sunday as the Athletics fell 12-3 to the Miami Marlins at the Coliseum. A day after reaching .500, the A’s fell to 17-18 and will face the defending World Series champion Texas Rangers four times over the next three days. The Marlins improved to 10-26. “Just one of those days,” designated hitter Brent Rooker said. “Not much went our way on either side of the ball, but that’s baseball. You’re going to have games like that. It was still a really good week for us, three straight series wins and we’ve been playing some good ball.” The paid attendance of 12,212 on a youth baseball day promotion was the A’s second largest crowd of the season behind the 13,522 on Opening Day. Nick Gordon of Miami hit a three-run home run off Boyle in a four-run first inning, his fourth of the season. After scoring 20 runs with 21 hits and six home runs in Saturday’s blowout win over Miami, the

PHILADELPHIA — Like many of us, Mason Black remembers the first ballgame he attended. He wasn’t yet 10 years old when his family made the 2-hour trek from their northeastern Pennsylvania home to Citizens Bank Park. They sat in right field, part of Pat Burrell’s cheering section. On Monday, more than a decade later, Black will be a little further away from those outfield seats. The 24-year-old right-hander from Scranton will toe the rubber sometime after 4:05 p.m. local time and throw the first pitch of his major-league career in the ballpark where he nurtured a nascent love for the sport. “I would say it’s kind of a storybook tale there,” Black said Sunday afternoon at his visitor’s clubhouse locker. “Being so close to home, hopefully having a chance to have a lot of people come out and see, it’s really exciting. … I have good memories here.” Black will be the fourth option the Giants have used to cover Blake Snell’s vacant spot in the starting rotation. They are 0-6 in those turns through the rotation, outscored 55-12, but if his performance through the
