Pillar’s grand slam not enough, Parra exits with injury

At one point, the Giants had a five-run lead. It was the largest lead they’ve had this entire season. The Giants’ problem this year hasn’t been their pitching. They’ve held opponents to an average of 3.6 runs per game and they’ve only allowed a team to score six or more runs once in their first 10 games. Even if they didn’t add on, the lead should have been secure. They should have won this game.

They did not win this game. In this darkest of timelines, the San Diego Padres are an unstoppable killing machine, and no lead is safe.
