There was nothing lucky about the
13th game of The Streak.
Yovani Gallardo did not allow a run in the first four innings of
Saturday's game. After Friday's shutout by
Randy Wolf that meant 13 scoreless innings for the Giants! They finally broke through in the 5th on an RBI ground out by
Mike Fontenot. The only other offensive highlight was
Buster Posey's epic 11-pitch strikeout AB against
John Axford in the 9th. The Freak was pulled for pinch-hitter
Nate Schierholtz in that same 5th, and Mr. Olympian's walk ahead of Fontenot kept the inning alive. Halving the deficit wasn't enough. The Brewers threw their two best guys at the Giants and they gave up one run in 16 innings. The 83-66 Giants
fell a half-game behind the 83-65 Padres.
