The Dodgers gave the Giants a taste of their own medicine on Tuesday night, blasting three home runs in a 6-3 win at Dodger Stadium.
and hitting a no-doubter into the left field bleachers. It was his first career leadoff homer and the sixth of the season for the Giants.
Like the previous two in this series, the homer was off a lefty. Brinson had a 1.256 OPS against lefties in Triple-A this season, a huge reason why the Giants scooped him up for a September audition. He'll certainly see another one on Wednesday when the Giants face Clayton Kershaw.The Giants don't have a true long reliever in their bullpen but Gabe Kapler has been able to rely on Garcia and Tyler Rogers for length at times.
Garcia gave up a three-run shot to Joey Gallo in the second inning and then a two-run homer to Muncy in the third. The five earned runs were a season-high for Garcia, who had allowed just four earned runs in his previous 14 appearances after a rough July. Rogers was coming off a rough outing against the Padres and had not pitched in a week, but he was sharp Tuesday. He took over for Garcia in the third and pitched 2 1/3 scoreless innings. Rogers allowed one hit, walked one and struck out a pair while tying a season-high with seven outs recorded.John Brebbia made his fourth"start" of the season as an opener and pitched a scoreless first despite getting a big scare.
