After yesterday's discouraging loss the team rebounded with a sound thumping of the Rays. The lineup delivered a barrage of extra-base hits and the Giants cruised behind a stellar start from Logan Webb. I found myself thinking "who is our garbage time guy?" and it turned out to be Nick Avila. He gave up a run in the 8th. Erik Miller had a clean 9th.
Webb's line (7 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 1 W, 4 K) included 12 groundouts with two double plays, one of which plated the only run he allowed. He threw 96 pitches (61 strikes) to 27 batters and earned his first W of the season.
