Home runs by Heliot Ramos and Rafael Devers supported Landen Roupp's excellent pitching and was enough to survive Camilo Doval's 9'th inning torture chamber. Key Lines:
Heliot Ramos LF- 1 for 4, HR(13). BA= .282. I didn't think Heliot got all of this one but the ball seemed to get some extra carry. I did notice that Heliot's front shoulder stays closed through his swing, something Willy Adames might want to pay attention to.
Rafael Devers DH- 1 for 4, HR(16). BA= .267. Devers' first home run as a Giant came with a runner on base and gave the Giants a 3-0 lead, one they would need every bit of by the end of the game. The HR went to straightaway LF. Kruk commented that about that about 50 or 20% of Devers' career 2016 HR's went oppo field.
Landen Roupp RHP- 6 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 7 K's. ERA= 3.67. I had my doubts in the first couple of innings but Roupp settled down and had all his pitches working for a better than Quality Start. Roupp has a 2.50 ERA over his last 7 starts despite the disaster start in LA.
Camilo Doval RHP- 1 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 0 BB, 0 K, Save(12). ERA= 2.06. Doval opened up with a leadoff double then two singles for one run. Then a throwing error on a SB attempt let another run in and put a runner at 2B with one out. Doval got out of it with a couple of ground outs. Whew!
Randy Rodriguez RHP and Tyler Rogers RHP pitched scoreless 7'th and 8'th innings respectively.
Nice win after yesterday's stinker.
Robbie Ray LHP tries to close out a series win tomorrow afternoon against Lucas Giolito RHP.
