SAN FRANCISCO -- Matt Cain's mini-roll came to a screeching halt Friday night, and so did any momentum the Giants gained by winning their first post All-Star break series in nine tries back in Miami two days ago.
Cain and the Giants came to AT&T Park and got whacked around 5-2 by another team in black and orange, the Baltimore Orioles, hardly the way Bruce Bochy had hoped his team might open a favorable schedule run — 15 of 18 games at home.Scratch one of those off the list with a frown, along with Cain's three-game personal winning streak.
