Thriller Gets the Giants to........ .500?

I love me a 1 - 0 game, especially when my favorite pitcher is on the mound. But this was a weird one.

This game felt like the Giants were going to lose. They allowed a lot of base-runners. Clay Bucholz didn't seem to allow much to the Giants, each hit he allowed was shortly erased. The Giants grounded into double plays to end both the 1st and 2nd innings. Brandon Crawford grabbed a line drive, only to have the ball bounce out of his glove. Madison Bumgarner was called out on a 3rd strike that was at least 9 inches outside, and no, he did not get that call when he was on the mound.
