New pitcher for the Giants this inning; promptly hits Rogowski with the first pitch thrown.

Sweeney with a decent swing against a side-arm lefty.

Ryan Sweeney is up! Flys out to left.

Pedro Lopez hits it up the middle, knocked down by the Giants pitcher, leading to a double play. Inning over.

First time seeing Jenks this year......he looks like an American version of Bartolo now.

Bobby Jenks is in. Looks like he's grown out his hair this year, or is my imagination fooling me.

 

First batter grounds out to short.

Nice play for Valido and stretch for Casey Rogowski. 2 outs.

Valido looks very smooth in the field. Jenks was working on everything but the heater, and seemed to have solid command.

Another grounder to Valido to end the inning. Still 7-6.

 

[...] and seemed to have solid command.

If you ignore the one that bounced before the plate, yea

As long as he only bounces 1 every inning...with that fastball people will still wind up swinging at it.

Another new Giants pitcher, Brian Wilson, who gets Chris Stewart to ground out to third to start the 8th.

Borchard grounds out to short on a nice play by the Giants fielder.

Fields singles up the middle, bringing up Brian Anderson.

Brian Anderson watches 4 pitches for a walk. Up comes Valido with runners on first and second and two outs.

Good to see him be patient at the plate.

Valido grounds out to third, score is still 7-6 Giants.

Lopez is in. I like his delivery

 

First batter pokes it out into left for a single.

Second batter knocks out a double, runners on second and third.

Third batter grounds out to third, runner hold at their bases.

Fourth batter gets away with a check swing that should have been a strike, but called a strike, ends up being walked.

Yeah that check swing looked like he went through ...

I sure hope we can make a trade for a 2nd lefty outta the pen, because he isn't currently in our system. Ugh.

Two RBI double hit past Fields, 9-6 Giants.

He gawn! 2 outs, runners on first and second.

Lopez with a K ... runners on 2nd and 1st

Yikes ... a trple and two more runs score ... 11 - 6 Bad guys
