What do you get your baseball team’s ace to celebrate his last start of the season? For the San Francisco Giants, they opted for a rare treat that Logan Webb always needs but rarely has enough of: Run support.
Webb threw six scoreless innings and the Giants hit five home runs in an 11-0 rout of the Arizona Diamondbacks. It was the team’s fifth win in a row and Webb’s 13th win on the season. This was Webb’s last start of the season, barring an unlikely ruling from Major League Baseball banning the Dodgers from the playoffs for competitive balance tax evasion.
