SAN FRANCISCO — Chris Stratton is pitching like he wants to stick around in the Giants rotation for a while.
Stratton followed up a masterful performance against the Washington Nationals last week by duct taping six shutout innings together Monday as the Giants topped the Milwaukee Brewers 2-0 at AT&T Park.
Unlike his performance on Aug. 13, in which he fanned 10 batters in 6 2/3 innings of work, Stratton labored to put six goose eggs up on the board Monday.
Stratton (2-2) threw 28 pitches to escape a jam with a pair of runners on in the first.
