The San Francisco Giants beat the Arizona Diamondbacks Wednesday by a convincing score of 7-2 to sweep a two-game series. The concept of a two-game series is offensive, so let’s forget that part and just think about the sweep. Sweeps are good.
It was not an interesting game. Note that I said “interesting” and not “enjoyable.” It was definitely an enjoyable game. It was a very enjoyable game, assuming you root for the Giants.
It just wasn’t interesting.
They jumped out to a lead and held the lead, save for a very early hiccup. They rarely looked in danger of regurgitating their hard-earned lead, and even when they did it wasn’t particularly concerning.
