Madison Bumgarner does everything, Giants win

The Giants won a 1-0 game for the second time this season, and the pitcher drove in the only run. The pitcher was Madison Bumgarner, of course.

It's rare for a team to win a 1-0 game. Even in a pitcher's park, even if the team has a rotation of the gods, it's just hard to limit the other team to absolutely nothing while stumbling into just a single run in your at-bats. Evidence: In the Giants' championship season of 2014, they didn't have a single 1-0 win. Either they scored too many runs, or the other team could at least get a single runner across the plate.
