SF 3 PHI 1
The Giants bounced back this afternoon behind a superb start by Jeff Samardzija. Yielding only two hits (one a solo homer) and no walks over eight innings (103 pitches) the big righty dominated a tough Phillies lineup. The rookie starters have been struggling so it is up to the veterans to give the team a better chance to win. The Giants lineup got two homers--a two-run shot from Evan Longoria and a solo shot by Kevin Pillar--to take care of all the scoring for the home squad. It was good to see the club show some grit and win the game after yesterday's discouraging loss. Will Smith finished up for his 28th save.
Conner Menez goes tomorrow at 4:05 p.m. PDT. Go Giants!

Kyle Barraclough, who was an effective reliever for the Marlins a few years ago, was waived by the Nationals and the Giants picked him up and assigned him to AAA.
