Alex Cobb struggled in the 1st inning but ultimately wriggled free of his mess without giving up a run. He then threw four more scoreless frames and was only touched in the 6th on a solo homer. Meanwhile the Giants tagged their old teammate Madison Bumgarner for six runs in his six innings and that was the difference. Tyler Rogers had a bad time in relief in the 7th but FNG lefty Alex Young got a strikeout to end the thing and the Giants cruised after that. Joey Bart had three hits and two runs batted in, J.D. Davis had two hits and scored two, and Evan Longoria smacked a two-run homer. This is a good time for the Giants to beat up on a weaker team--let's hope they get that memo.
Tonight it is a tougher test with Merrill Kelly going for the Diamondbacks. Jacob Junis gets the call for the home team (6:45 PDT).
Go Giants!
