The Giants had a chance for a split in the getaway game today but the mismatch between a dominant Carlos Carrasco and a still-struggling Anthony DeSclafani resulted in a 6-2 loss. The team cruised into NYC for a four-game showdown with the Mets on the heels of a six-game win streak but could not conjure up any road magic. Rain cancelled Monday's game and the Giants took an early lead behind Alex Cobb in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader. Alas, some weird stuff happened--an out taken away on a replay review, a couple of ground ball extra-base hits, a freaky injury--and the Mets clawed back to take the game 5-4 in extras.
