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.
