Coming off of a much needed win against the rival Dodgers yesterday, the San Francisco Giants looked to repeat that success on Tuesday night. Ty Blach got the start on the mound for the Giants in a rematch against Clayton Kershaw, and much like the October 1st matchup last season, it was a pitcher’s duel throughout.
The San Francisco Giants have been tinkering around with their lineup quite a bit lately trying to find some sense of success, and there was one major change in tonight’s lineup. A day after making his major league debut in the sixth spot in the order, Christian Arroyo moved all the way up to second in the order, which says a lot to me about the trust the organization has in Arroyo, especially with Kershaw on the mound.
