The Giants blew a late lead and lost in Atlanta. Tony Watson gave up a run in the 7th and left two on for Zack Littell who gave up a three-run bomb. It went from 4-2 ahead to 6-4 behind in the blink of an eye. Kevin Gausman was shaky early but looked much better in the last three innings His final line (6 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 0 W, 2 K) is encouraging. Wilmer Flores homered off Will Smith in the 9th to make it 6-5 and with two outs Tommy La Stella blasted a deep fly to right that looked like it might tie the game. But Joc Pederson made a miraculous catch to crush our hopes. It would have stayed in the park and been extra bases if Pederson had missed the catch. Buster Posey hit a two-run opposite-field homer of Max Fried in the 1st on his return to the lineup.

Rockies beat the Dodgers so the Giants are still +2.5.
Gausman's performance was reassuring, especially given the rain delay, which could have messed him up.
