Hayden Birdsong could NOT find the strike zone and got tagged hard. Was he overconfident with a four run lead? Perhaps. But it’s August and I think this is the kind of road trip lesson that makes sense.
Taylor Rogers, who is fighting, scrapping, for his career, is the worst reliever amidst a great bullpen. Recently, he has shown signs of fight, but not so much tonight as he gave up two walks and an earned run.
The Giants have won eight of the last eleven, but the Pads beat the Pirates and the Cards won, so things are near dire.
Just how we like it.
Let’s go Giants!
