The Giants are playing their best baseball of the season on this final road trip. It started with an emphatic 10-0 win in Baltimore on Tuesday. Blake Snell threw six shutout innings allowing one hit and whiffing twelve. Hayden Birdsong and the bullpen toughed out a 5-3 win the next day behind homers from Mike Yastrzemski and Michael Conforto. Logan Webb started the finale but the Orioles edged out a win and the Giants had to be content with a series victory.
In Kansas City the Giants small-balled past the Royals in a nail-biting 2-1 win on Friday.
