For the majority of Tuesday evening’s game, the San Francisco Giants looked well on their way to losing for the eighth time in a row. The offense was slow to get started, only mustering four hits through the first seven innings, while getting shutout.
In the first inning, Joe Panik, who has been swinging the bat well, reached on a one out single. Nothing came of that, as Brandon Crawford would follow with an inning ending double play. It would be the first of two inning ending double plays in the first four innings.
