The A's scored three runs. You don't think that means anything. Yeah, so what? They scored three runs, big whoop. Dog bites man.
Except the Giants allowing three runs in a June homestand means they would have lost five out of the six games. Three runs is a lot at AT&T Park, or at least it feels like it. On some nights -- most nights? -- allowing three runs would have meant that it was time to blame someone. Who was that reliever who did that thing when the other guy did that thing? Bring him forward, I want to yell at him.
