In fitting fashion, Giants leave the tying run on base in the ninth inning

For the second day in a row, a very good San Francisco Giants pitcher did not have it in the first inning. And for the second day in a row, the Giants held the Los Angeles Dodgers in check for the rest of the game. And for the second day in a row, the Giants offense just could not find The Hit™, and they lost to the Dodgers. This time it was 3-1.

On Tuesday it was the Giants ace, Kevin Gausman, who got into some early hot water. Gausman couldn’t locate the strike zone in the first inning, and loaded the bases via a pair of walks and a hit batter.
