Giants Win 7th Straight Thanks To Botched Play By Mets

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The way the pitchers on both teams were dealing, it figured that it might take a miscue in the field for either team to score.

A botched fly ball between New York Mets left fielder Dominic Smith and shortstop Amed Rosario did the trick for the San Francisco Giants for a second straight season.

Alex Dickerson raced home from first after Smith failed to catch a two-out popup in the 10th inning that he tentatively played to avoid a collision with Rosario and the Giants won their season-high seventh straight game, 1-0 on Friday night.
