Giants lose two outfielders, one game
For a few innings, the San Francisco Giants were following the same blueprint they used to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-0 on Tuesday night. They were creating opportunities, and they were capitalizing on them. They were keeping the Dodgers from doing the same.
Just as was the case on Tuesday, it started in the first inning. In the top half, Alex Cobb danced around danger. A four-pitch walk and a single put two on with just one out, a situation Cobb deftly maneuvered with the help of a strike zone that was ebbing, flowing, and dancing around like the blob in a lava lamp.
Crisis averted.
