Timely hitting propels Giants to 8-3 win over Dodgers

In game two of this double-header, the Giants came out ahead, 8-3. It was an entire day of baseball for most of the players, and one would expect there to be a little less energy in the second game. Which was kind of true, it was much faster than the first game, and fewer runs were scored by the Dodgers (which is always important). But the Giants were able to keep up the pace of their offense between the two games. This time, with timely hitting.

One of the usual complaints about the Giants is the lack of hitting with runners in scoring position.
