ATLANTA -- Jeff Samardzija made an interesting comment last week after another in a string of successful starts.
Not only has he felt locked in with his pitching mechanics, but when they get thrown off, he can pinpoint what's wrong and instantly fix it.Maybe you don't have to delve too deep to find the problem in Samardzija's shortest start as a Giant in a 5-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field on Monday. Maybe he just needed a full night's rest.The Giants (32-21) dragged themselves from Denver, skipped two time zones and had to be bright eyed early on Memorial Day to face the Braves -- a team that was 4-21 at home this season, but a major league team nonetheless.
