Giants 2, Padres 1: Webb needed only 96 pitches to complete 8 innings and allowed only 2 base runners after the 1st inning.
SAN FRANCISCO — The Giants’ series finale against the Padres lacked the fireworks of the previous night, but the club will happily accept the tradeoff if it means escaping with its second straight series win.
The Giants got eight innings of one-run baseball from staff ace Logan Webb in his second start of the year, becoming not only the first starter in the majors this season to pitch into the eighth inning but also the first one to finish it. Webb needed only 96 pitches to strike out seven Padres while allowing four hits, including only two after the first inning.
