The SF Giants bullpen really shined last night in a win over the LA Dodgers. Let's give credit where it is due. The bullpen stepped on the mound and got the job done. Very well done Steven Okert and Will Smith!!! And what a great finish in the 9th by Sergio Romo!!! Yes, yes, yes! You have to love a 1-2-3 close.
Johnny Cueto had another stellar game. The offense in the form of two single home runs was enough to hold off the Dodgers. Cueto departed from the game after perhaps straining a groin muscle. All Giants fans hope this is not serious. It's crucial to have Johnny in the starting lineup during the last eleven games of the season.
Brandon Crawford was thrown out sliding into third base injuring one of his fingers. He is day to day and according to SFGiants.com Cueto will be having a MRI today to determine the extent of his injury. Giants fans are hoping for the best.
Eduardo Nunez got the Giants on the board with his home run. Check out the MLB.com video by clicking HERE.
Brandon Belt gave the Giants a cushion when he belted his home run in the top of the ninth inning. Watch the MLB.com video by clicking HERE.
Romo ends the game with a strikeout. Check out the MLB.com video by clicking HERE.
The Giants are in a three way tie for the wild card with eleven games left. The Mets, Cardinals and the Giants will battle until one of the teams are eliminated. This is crunch time and each game should be played like the playoffs depend on it, because one game could decide the outcome of the entire season.
Matt Moore is on the mound tonight in LA against Kent Maeda. Game time is 7:10 PST.
Go Matt Moore! Go Giants!!!
