Game Wrap 9/14/2022: Giants 4 Braves 1

Carlos Rodon left the game after just 5 IP and 71 pitches due to a finger blister, but the Giants offense scratched out 4 runs off Charlie Morton RHP and the bullpen shut it down. 

J.D. Davis 1B- 2 for 3, 2B, BB.  BA= .242.  Davis was one of the hitting stars in the game as he scored the Giants first run and drove in the second inning and drove in the second with a double in the 4'th.

Austin Wynns C- 2 for 3.  BA= .232.  Ownage is ownage as Kruk and Kuip like to say.  Wynns is 6 for 15 on the season against the Braves.  Maybe that's why he started 2 of the 3 games in the series?

Carlos Rodon LHP- 5 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 8 K's.  Rodon continues to press his case for Cy Young Award consideration and his price tag in likely free agency keeps climbing.  The 8 K's gave him 220 on the season, 1 more than last year's Cy Young winner, Corbin Burnes.

Camilo Doval RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's, Save(23).  ERA= 2.54.  Strikes out the side for the Save! Looks like the Giants don't need to go out and pay top dollar for a name Closer this offseason.  They still do need to upgrade bullpen depth.

John Brebbia RHP- 1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K.  ERA= 2.83.  Speaking of bullpen depth, one guy they won't be looking to replace.  He is arbitration eligible, not a free agent until 2024.

Giants get a day off at home tomorrow before starting a weekend series against The Hated Ones.  Logan Webb RHP is slated to pitch the opener Friday night.

  1. The 2-1 series win over the Braves leaves the Giants with a 19-14 record against the NL East in 2022. They have a 19-14 record against the NL Central this year, as well.

    21-36 against the NL West currently, with 19 more to go, all within division.
