First, Colin Rea bounced a curve in the dirt to Brandon Crawford. Then he missed with two fastballs.
Rea’s fourth attempt to find the plate in a 30-pitch second inning Tuesday night found too much of it.
Way too much of it.
The Giants’ shortstop deposited Rea’s 91 mph fastball onto The Pier in right-center, a 432-foot mistake that was unforgivable given Rea’s adversary: An especially sharp and confrontational Madison Bumgarner, who struck out 11, stared down Wil Myers in a benches-clearing incident and completed a 5-1 win that buried the Padres even deeper in the NL West.
