Running game story… SAN FRANCISCO – Back as far as spring training, the Giants envisioned this series with the Dodgers being pivotal in the fight for the NL West. They did not envision Alejandro De Aza driving in Marlon Byrd with the winning run. The Giants might be depleted and mostly unrecognizable to casual fans. But they are not dead yet. Byrd singled and went to third on Kelby Tomlinson single, then De Aza’s pinch sacrifice fly sent the Giants to a 3-2 victory over the Dodgers in the 12th inning Monday night. Advertisement Yes, De Aza.
UPDATED: Jake Peavy's intensity, De Aza's sacrifice fly in 12th and plenty of rookie resolve gives Giants another day of life in NL West
