SAN FRANCISCO — A week ago, the Giants were desperate for anybody on their pitching staff to delivery a quality start. Now they’re finally racking them up.
Ty Blach worked himself out of a couple of jams, relied on solid defense and allowed only a solo home run over seven innings in a 2-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. It was the Giants’ sixth straight quality start, dating back to Blach’s last turn in the rotation, and extended their season-high winning streak to five games.
The Giants (17-24) will have a chance to go for their first series sweep of the season and complete a 6-1 home stand when Johnny Cueto matches up with Clayton Kershaw on Wednesday afternoon.
