Giants subdue pesky Pirates

The Giants offense woke up this afternoon in Pittsburgh and bailed out a laboring Alex Wood. The Pirates bullpen helped out, too. It was another one of those games that should have had a lopsided score. Giants hitters got nine walks to go along with their ten hits. I can't complain about seven runs, especially after this long stretch of low-scoring games, but it felt like it should have been more. Regardless, the Giants finally surrendered some runs after a long stretch of low-scoring games. Starting with the sweep of LA here are the runs allowed in the last seven contests, all wins except one: 2, 2, 0, 2, 2, 3 (loss), 0.
