San Francisco Giants fans despair as Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Max Muncy hits 2 more homers against them: "He can’t keep getting away with this" 

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy owns just a .230 career batting average, but he turns into Mike Schmidt nearly every time he plays the San Francisco Giants.

Muncy did it again Wednesday night, going 2-for-5 with two home runs and four RBI as the Dodgers rallied from an early three-run deficit to win handily in the series finale at Oracle Park in San Francisco.

In his eight-year MLB career — the last six seasons with Los Angeles — Muncy has 25 homers and 55 RBI in 75 games against the Giants. He has just 147 homers and 393 RBI in his entire 723-game career.

In Monday's series opener, Max Muncy went 3-for-3 with two home runs and seven RBI as Los Angeles won 9-1. For some inextricable reason, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts sat Muncy in Tuesday's game. Predictably, the Giants won 5-0.

Muncy was back in the lineup on Wednesday, and the results were obvious. Though Giants reliever Ross Stripling — a former Dodger — did manage to strike out Muncy in his final plate appearance of the series.

For some reason, it never seems to occur to the Giants to simply pitch around Muncy. Clearly, Muncy is not Barry Bonds, but he does a mean impression of the MLB all-time home run king whenever he visits Bonds' old ballpark. Muncy had just one home run on the season, April 4 against the Colorado Rockies, prior to the Giants series.

One fan said:

"He can't keep getting away like this."

Max Muncy doesn't return to San Francisco until Sept. 29

Max Muncy added a milestone to his name in Giants/Dodgers lore Wednesday, as he becane the first player since the team moved from New York to San Francisco in 1958 to record 11 RBI in three games against them. He did so in two games, but he did go 0-for-1 in a pinch-hitting appearance Tuesday.

Muncy could become a free agent at the end of the season, but the Los Angleles does have a team option to keep him for 2023. If the Dodgers let him go, could it be a case of "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em," for Muncy and the Dodgers?

Good news for the Giants, Max Muncy and the Los Angeles Dodgers don't return to Oracle Park in San Francisco until a regular season-concluding series Sept. 29-Oct. 1.
