Giants 6, Rockies 3: Walking into the jaws of defeat

A disastrous sixth inning quickly negated a solid start on the mound by Bradley Blalock and a rare rally on the road as the Colorado Rockies (6-27) dropped a second straight game to the San Francisco Giants (21-13) on Saturday by a score of 6-3.

Not bad, Bradley

Making his second start of the season in place of the injured Ryan Feltner, Blalock filled in quite nicely on the day. Dueling against Jordan Hicks, Blalock matched the fireballer pitch for pitch, cruising through the first five innings. The only blemish heading into the sixth was a solo home run given up to Luis Matos in the third inning to give the Giants a 1-0 lead as well as a single for Willy Adames in the fourth inning.
