Well, it finally happened. In his 10th start of the year, Robbie Ray finally pitched in a game that the San Francisco Giants lost. And, seemingly just because baseball loves to remind you how silly it can be, it just so happened that the Ray start the Giants finally lost was ... well ... his best start of the year.
Ray and his fellow lefty Kris Bubic put on a pitching show to tell your grandkids about, if your grandkids like baseball and ask if anything interesting happened on Monday night. Each southpaw shut down the opposing team for seven scoreless innings, though they approached their success in significantly different ways.
