Sweeeep!!

The Giants threw a shutout against the Dodgers this afternoon in San Francisco. It was the tenth anniversary of Matt Cain's perfect game so it was fitting that the pitchers shined. Carlos Rodón allowed only two hits and three walks in his six innings, whiffing eight in the process, and turned the ball over to the 'pen after 98 pitches. He was not exactly efficient (34 balls, 17 fouls) but he was effective. John Brebbia gave up a hit and a walk in the 7th but kept LA off the board. A great play on a pop-up by Wilmer Flores behind third base helped him out.
