Giants leave brooms at home on Father’s Day, fail to complete sweep of Brewers

SAN FRANCISCO — Among all the potential Father’s Day gifts out there, a broom ranks among the tackiest.

It’s exactly the present manager Bruce Bochy wanted anyway, but Oracle Park remains a sweep-free zone in three and four-game series for the Giants.

After taking the first two games of a three-game weekend set from the first-place Milwaukee Brewers, the Giants failed to break out the brooms in a 5-3 loss on Sunday.

The defeat halted the Giants’ longest win streak of the season at four and prevented them from earning their first sweep in a three-game series this year.
