The San Francisco Giants came to Great American Ball Park this week like it was October 2012 and crushed the soul of the Cincinnati Reds as they swept the series in embarrassing fashion. Darin Ruf had a walk and four hits, including two doubles and a home run. If this game were a GIF, it would be this one:
| San Francisco Giants (28-16) | 19 | 16 | 1 |
| Cincinnati Reds (19-23) | 4 | 10 | 1 |
| W: Cueto (3-1) L: Mahle (2-2) | |||
The Offense
Down 10-0 in the bottom of the 3rd inning the Reds offense got moving when Alex Blandino led off with a double.
