Monday Morning Roundup


  • Your Weekend Giants scores in brief: We already saw the Giants clear the bench on Friday night, after which they still lost 9-2 to the Phillies. Saturday's game was a little more balanced and a little less violent, yet we still lost 2-1. Pablo Sandoval got the lonely homer. Finally, some good news to (hopefully) bring the team out of their slump: Tim Lincecum was both "sharp" and "brilliant" as he held the Phillies to a single run while the offense batted in three. Final score: 3-1, Brian Wilson got his 34th save on the season. Take that, Phillies. [CBS5] [MLB.com] [McCoveyChron]
