Dodgers 1 Giants 0: The Rich Get Richer
The Dodgers took game two against the Giants behind strong pitching.
The Dodgers finally got a start from their trade deadline acquisition, and it seems like he was worth the wait.
Dodgers Starter
Rich Hill made his long-anticipated Dodger debut. He hadn’t thrown a pitch in a game since July 7th, so there was quite a bit of uncertainty around him.
For those (myself included) that supported the trade despite Hill’s blister, Hill rewarded us for our patience. Hill got himself in a bit of trouble with a pair of weakly-hit singles in the first, but froze Brandon Crawford with a filthy curveball to escape the jam. Turns out, that was the only Giant baserunner to reach scoring position against Hill.
