Team effort downs M's

SF 4  SEA 3
Kelby Tomlinson got things going for the Giants offense tonight and with a little help from Steven Duggar and Hunter Pence and, well, a whole bunch of guys, they prevailed in Seattle. The Giants led 1-0, 2-1, and 3-2 and the Mariners tied the score in every case. Somehow they conjured up the go-ahead run in the 9th and gave Will Smith a chance to close it out. He did. This team just cannot seem to put the thump on another club. They have to play these agonizing, nail-biting, hard-fought, bloody wars of attrition. I want to see a goddamn ass-whuppin'. Or two. OK, OK, maybe that's too much to ask. How about a nice run like 24 out of 30? I guess I'll settle for a two-game sweep.

Derek Holland gets the ball tomorrow against familiar face Mike Leake (1:10 Pacific).

GO GIANTS!

If the Pirates can win 11 in a row with their roster, so can the giants.
