Giants shut out on 2 hits and don’t come close to beating Braves, despite limiting dangerous lineup to 4 runs.
Gabe Kapler was not the Giants’ bad luck charm, nor the source of their offensive trouble.
When Alex Cobb threw his arms up in disgust after the first pitch out of his hand snuck through the infield for a hit, it could have been the start of a very bad night against the best lineup in baseball. Instead, it was simply just another bad night for what has been the majors’ worst lineup for the better part of two months, now.
Strider racked up 10 strikeouts over seven shutout innings — eight of the first 15 batters he faced — and a couple relievers added another trifecta, increasing the swing-and-miss Giants’ season total to 1,146, overtaking the Rockies for the third-most in the majors.
