They did it again. The San Francisco Giants came from behind in the 9th inning and walked it off with a 2-run homer. Different opponent, shuffled cast, same results.
Thairo Estrada, the hero of Sunday’s game, stepped up to the plate with two outs and two strikes in a 1-0 ballgame and tripled off Arizona Diamondbacks closer Ian Kennedy. Brandon Crawford then slugged an 0-1 fastball over the center field wall.
It happened fast. Fans at Oracle pinched themselves giddy, treated to the ultimate baseball game finale twice in three days.
