Ty Blach pitches Giants past Braves

SAN FRANCISCO — Like Matt Cain, Giants starter Ty Blach continues to dish out his best stuff in the pitcher-friendly confines of AT&T Park.

The only difference is that Blach actually received some run support, and plenty of it, Saturday as the Giants (21-30) returned to the win column with a 6-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves.

After spoiling a seven-inning, one-run performance from Cain Friday night, the Giants offense made sure that it didn’t deal the same fate to Blach as the left-hander put together one of his strongest starts of the season, tossing seven shutout innings before surrendering a pair of earned runs in the eighth.
