Giants bring 12 men to the plate in eight-run sixth, practically matching offensive output from past three losses.
DENVER — The San Francisco Giants must have been wondering as the sixth inning went on, hit after hit, run after run, where was all this offense when they needed it?
Blackmon hit a soft liner into Estrada’s glove for the final out, ending a game that exuded Coors Field all over it, after the teams seemed to forget they were playing in the friendliest hitting environment in the majors in their first three games. Haniger drove home two with his second double of the game, over the head of center fielder Brenton Doyle, and two batters later, Crawford cleared the bases with a three-run shot into the Rockies bullpen. With doubles from Joc Pederson and Mike Yastrzemski, the Giants equaled their number of extra-base hits and home runs from their three losses the past two days in one inning.
It was a well-rounded effort, with hits from all 10 players who received an at-bat and multiple base knocks from four of them, and an impressive show of force, to be sure, but with only a dozen games remaining, after dropping the three easiest games left on their schedule the previous two nights, was it too late?
