It had been awhile. Six days to be exact. Nearly a week. Last Wednesday, the last ‘W’ for our San Francisco Giants.
Coincidentally it was Blake Snell’s last start against Milwaukee that the Giants exploded for 13 runs, and he toed the rubber for Tuesday’s opener against the Baltimore Orioles when the bats posted double-digit runs again.
The way Snell was pitching, the 10 runs plated bordered on excessive. Baltimore’s offense is in a bit of a dive lately, and they didn’t get much of a confidence boost against the reigning NL Cy Young winner.
