Happy Fourth of July, all.
The Giants are back home for six games against the Rockies and Diamondbacks that carry them into the break. Jake Peavy hopes to continue his revival against the Rockies, who scored two runs over three games at Los Angeles over the weekend.
The Dodgers had a great week. They went 6-1 while the Giants were 3-4. The Giants’ 5-4, 11-inning victory in Arizona on Sunday was big, mostly from a psychological standpoint. Had they lost, they would have given back in one week half of the eight-game division lead they had built.
