After mustering just 9 runs during their three-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, the San Francisco Giants nearly matched that in a single outing against the Arizona Diamondbacks, registering 8 runs in a lopsided affair.
I wrote before the game that the Giants had a chance to recover in Arizona before getting back to business with the Dodgers. It turns out they had just sent their bats to Phoenix before welcoming LA to town. Not the shrewdest move, but hey ... what’s past is past, and now we just get to enjoy the return of good Giants hitting.
