Giants take series behind Bumgarner, Kelby-mania runs wild

The tough loss from Monday is long forgotten, as the Giants used good pitching and timely hitting to win again.

If you're grading on a curve that's set to "Importance to the 2015 Giants", Madison Bumgarner throwing 7u2154 innings in the Atlanta heat, missing bats and saving his bullpen, is probably the story. He was top-shelf Bumgarner, and they'll show highlights from games like that on the holo-scoreboard in 30 years. We'll all be so wistful and appreciative.

Except, I've written about Bumgarner 100 times. You've read about him 200 times. He's great, but he's a familiar great.
