Clayton Kershaw and Madison Bumgarner each pitched well, but weren't around to see the ending, which was too painful for the Dodgers, 3-2 losers to the Giants on Wednesday night at AT&T Park.
One play after Giants third base coach Roberto Kelly physically stopped pinch-runner Gregor Blanco rounding third base, Joe Panik hit a game-winning sacrifice fly to center field with the bases loaded to give San Francisco a second straight win.
On a night that saw Kershaw pick off Norichika Aoki but not get the out because Justin Turner at first base literally start running toward the runner only to miss the tag, it was fitting the game would end in bizarre fashion.
