Road Warriors
The Giants are playing their best baseball of the season on this final road trip. It started with an emphatic 10-0 win in Baltimore on Tuesday. Blake Snell threw six shutout innings allowing one hit and whiffing twelve. Hayden Birdsong and the bullpen toughed out a 5-3 win the next day behind homers from Mike Yastrzemski and Michael Conforto. Logan Webb started the finale but the Orioles edged out a win and the Giants had to be content with a series victory.
In Kansas City the Giants small-balled past the Royals in a nail-biting 2-1 win on Friday. Mason Black got his first “W” with five scoreless frames. Heliot Ramos had a single, a double, and a triple. He scored one of the runs and drove in the other. Camilo Doval got a pulse-pounding save. On Saturday the Giants put on a show much like the one in Baltimore, thumping the Royals 9-0. Both Matt Chapman and LaMonte Wade, Jr. hit two homers. Landen Roupp threw five scoreless and Spencer Bivens and Tristan Beck added two scoreless innings apiece.
In the finale today the Giants got their sweep behind Blake Snell’s six scoreless (two hits, nine strikeouts). Sean Hjelle, Tyler Rogers, and Ryan Walker were unscored upon in the final three innings and the Giants had a tidy 2-0 victory. That Snell guy is pretty good and I think the Giants should give him a bazillion dollars.
It’s too bad we didn’t see this version of the team a few months ago. Nonetheless there is something to play for–a .500 finish. They are 77-79 with six games left. There are three in Arizona the next three nights (6:40 PT start times). Thursday is the last off-day and then there is the weekend series at home against the Cardinals. They have to go 4-2 and that seems very doable.
Go Giants!
