Well, San Francisco fans got what they wanted. Not that the Giants won Saturday’s game, or followed up Friday’s gritty bullpen performance with another well-pitched barn-burner — just that we got to see Tyler Rogers pitch again. Obviously not in the way we’d prefer to watch Rogers pitch — that is in a Giants uniform, protecting a Giants’ lead, making non-Giants hitters look silly — but I’ll take Rogers pitching in meaningful MLB games any way I can get him.
Though he warmed up twice in the bullpen yesterday, the game narrative never brought Rogers to the hill.
