The Giants and Phillies slugged it out to a 6-6 tie after 3 innings but the Phillies bullpen shut down the Giants the rest of the way while the Giants bullpen just kept pouring gasoline on the fire. Game Notes:
Alex Wood LHP continues to struggle. He had a 1.93 ERA on May 21 after 7 Starts, but has been torched for a 7.88 ERA in 5 Starts since. The problem seems to be with commanding his slider which requires a strong grip which........OK, you get the idea. His slider usage is way down and his changeup usage is way up. Short of a trade, the Giants probably don't have any great options other than to keep putting him out here and hoping he gets is figured out.
Lamonte Wade Jr LF had another nice game with 2 hits including a double in 5 AB'S. He is hitting .296 over his last 7 games and has his season BA back up to .278. Kap talked about Alex Dickerson OF and Darin Ruf OF/1B starting rehab assignments. He didn't sound all that anxious to get them back: "We'll see how many at-bats they need to feel good."
Mike Yastrzemski RF hit a 2-run HR in the bottom of the first inning to give the Giants a short-lived lead. He's also hitting .296 over his last 7 games with 2 HR'S.
Brandon Belt 1B homered again and he is definitely hot hitting .423 over his last 7 games with 3 HR's. He also drew a walk and stole his 3'rd base of the season in today's game.
*************************************************************************************
The Giants will remain in first place in the NL West after the Loss, but will likely lose ground to their pursuers, the Dodgers and Padres, who are both leading in their night games....er, the Padres won their game over the Reds to cut their deficit to 5 games.
*************************************************************************************
Sammy Long LHP will get the start tomorrow apparently without an Opener. He will be trying for a series Win facing Zach Eflin RHP.
