#SFGiants #MLB
The good news is that the #Giants beat the #ChiSox 1-4 yesterday with a lot less effort than it took 2 days ago.
Robbie Ray found his control & gave up only 1 run on 3 hits w/no walks & 9Ks in 6.2 innings & on 96 pitches thrown. And the rest of the relief staff shut out the ChiSox over the last 2.1 innings, including a 3K "save" by Walker.
On the other hand, while the Giants' hitters did enough to squeak out 4 runs for the win, they were still 2 of 11 RISP which means that coulda/shoulda scored a lot more runs than just 4.
This is not a problem when the Giants score enough runs to win & when the pitchers do enough to prevent the opposing team to score but it is a big problem when the Giants are behind.
Anyway, the Giants "should: win again today to go 3 games over 500 at 66-33 before they have to face the #Mariners & the #Brewers, which are much better teams than the ChiSox in the coming week.
Go Giants!!! 🥳
