Stampeding to .500, Giants Clobber Cubs 12 – 5, Take Second Series Against NL Central

After falling out of contention in August with eleven losses, the Giants have won back-to-back series against MLB Central Division leaders.

Rafael Devers homered twice, Matt Chapman hammered his 200th big fly, and young Carson Whisenhunt got his second win (2- 1).

The Giants rookie allowed three runs on five hits, struck out three and walked three in his fifth career start, second since being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento last Friday.

The Giants go for the sweep at Oracle today and a win puts them three games shy of .500.

“Mathematically still not eliminated,” should be the Giants September motto.
