ST. LOUIS - Can pitchers lose their concentration on the mound after they have to run the bases?
Based on a minuscule sample size, two games on this trip, the Giants would have to say yes.
In San Diego on Wednesday, Chris Stratton hit a three-run double in the second inning then immediately gave up five. On Saturday, it happened to their hottest pitcher, in a game the Giants lost 5-4 on Tyler O'Neill's two-out, two-strike homer against Mark Melancon in the 10th inning.
