After two nights of disastrous, soul-demolishing, unforgivably, monstrously stupid blown saves, the Giants bestowed a gift upon all non-Oakland Athletics fans by having the good manners and courtesy to lose the third and final game of the Bay Bridge Series via good old fashioned blowout.
The sweep concluded with Sunday’s 15-3 Oakland win, and it was never really that close.
The Giants, as is their gentlepersonly nature, had the grace to make it respectable through four innings, but the A’s tipped their cap to the 2-2 score and unloaded a series of tape measure shots en route to putting up a hilariously crooked number of nine runs in the top of the fifth.
