For most of Wednesday’s get-away game, it looked like the San Francisco Giants bats had already left Denver on the early flight to Chicago.
After scoring 22 runs with 30 hits in the first two games of the series, Colorado Rockies starter, Jon Gray, kept the Giants hitters dull and ineffective, limiting them to two hits while striking out eight over five complete innings.
It was a downshift offensively to say the least, and not a clean one—like coming off 280 North into that first intersection at 19th Avenue. It happens fast and is just never pretty.
