Giants Sweep A 3-game Series Against Colorado
The San Francisco Giants have tied for the Wild Card lead...for now. Thanks to a series sweep against the Colorado Rockies. In the first game Tim Lincecum pitched and pitched a gem not allowing a run and the Giants went on to win 2-0. In the 2nd game of the series Barry Zito had to pitch a good and solid game for the Giants to have a chance to win and he did. He only allowed 1 run through 8 innings and the Giants got some run support for him as well and went on to win 5-3. In the final game Matt Cain was on the mound. He didn't have a stellar performance, but it turned to be enough. He gave up 5 runs through 6 innings and the Giants were down 5-2 in the 7th with the bases loaded when Edgar Renteria who came into the game with only 3 home runs hit a GRAND SLAM to take the lead 6-5. And then in the 8th inning they really shut the door on Colorado scoring 3 runs and winning the game 9-5 along with the series sweep.
