Jeff Samardzija threw a dominant start and the Giants scratched out single runs in the 8'th and 9'th innings for a come-from-behind win. Key Lines:
Eduardo Nunez- 1 for 4, HR(15). BA= .280. Nunez drove in the first Giants run in the 3'rd inning with a HR to left. He drove in the second run on a groundout.
Kelby Tomlinson- 1 for 3, BB. BA= .288. Kelby didn't get a whole lot of respect this year from the Giants, but he might be the toughest out on the roster, especially now that Duffy is gone. Maybe he can show some of the other hitters what a tough out looks like.
Jeff Samardzija- 7 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 9 K's. ERA= 4.00. Not matter what happens this year, Samardzija's recovery from a brutal mid-season slump bodes well for the remaining 4 years on his contract.
Santiago Casilla- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 0 K, Save(31). ERA= 3.21. I guess Closers close and Casilla is the Closer.
