The lineups in the first game of the big series spoke volumes on the chasm between the teams.
The Giants put four Opening Day starters on the field, all they have left. The Dodgers, even in their desperation to climb into the playoffs, felt comfortable starting the game with Cody Bellinger, Yasiel Puig, Max Muncy and their 79 home runs on the bench.
The Dodgers did not need them to beat Madison Bumgarner and the Giants 3-1 in a Friday night game that felt like Candlestick Park, down two the two blue-clad fans dragged out by police behind the plate in the eighth inning.
