Yesterday's Game
Lefthander, righthander, day of rest, sleepless night-- none of it seemed to matter. The Giants blew out the Rockies early, taking a 10-1 lead by the sixth inning. Darin Ruf led off the game with a home run, Thairo Estrada, last week's home run hero, belted two out of Coors Field, and Buster Posey hit his 17th. Mauricio Dubon had three hits and two RBI, and everyone in the starting lineup had at least one hit except Brandon Crawford, who did help turn a double play in the field. There were fifteen hits in all and a nice cushion for Kevin Gausman, who won his 13th game. He also had some batting fun, driving in one run and scoring another in the four-run fifth. Gausman pitched as well as he has all season through five, then gave up single runs in the sixth and seventh. Trevor Story homered off Caleb Baragar in the eighth to make the score a little more palatable for the locals.
