SAN FRANCISCO-It maybe a new day, but it is the exact same result for the defending World Champion San Francisco Giants.

Since winning the series opener on April 9 against the San Diego Padres, the Giants have dropped eight in a row, with their latest coming in a 9-0 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks at AT&T Park.

The eight-game losing streak is longest by the team since dropping eight in a row from June 13-22, 2007.

Also with the loss, the Giants have matched their worst start to a season thru 12 games since moving to San Francisco back in 1958.

The Giants also started 3-9 in 1983, 1985 and 2000, in that 2000 season, the Giants would regroup and end up winning the National League West by 11 games before losing to the eventual National League Champion New York Mets in four games in the National League Division Series.

Jake Peavy was cruising through the first two innings, despite allowing a single and a walk in the second inning.

In was in the third inning that the wheels fell off the wagon for Peavy, as he allowed three runs on four hits in the frame.

Usual Giants killer Paul Goldschmidt was up to his old tricks, as he lashed a single to centerfield that scored Ender Inciarte with the Diamondbacks first run of the game.

The Goldschmidt single was the third single in a row after starting pitcher Josh Collmenter grounded out to leadoff the inning.

After the Collmenter ground out, Inciarte singled, then A.J. Pollock singled prior to Goldschmidt’s single up the middle.

Jake Lamb then hit a two-run triple that scored both Pollock and Goldschmidt for the Diamondbacks second and third runs of the inning.

Collmenter then helped out his cause in the top of the fourth inning, as he singled to right field to score Chris Owings.

Following Pollock’s second of four hits on the evening, Peavy was pulled by Giants manager Bruce Bochy in favor of George Kontos.

In just three and two-thirds innings of work, Peavy gave up four runs on eight hits, while walking one and striking out two.

Kontos allowed a run in the top of the fifth inning, as Tuffy Gosewisch singled to score David Peralta, who led off the inning with a single of his own.

The runs for the Diamondbacks did not stop there, as Ryan Vogelsong gave up in the top of the sixth inning, when Peralta picked up his second hit of the game to score Pollock.

On the other side of things, Collmenter was cruising, as he threw a complete game shutout, as he allowed just three hits, while walking one and striking out one and won for the first time in 2015.

Collmenter picked up his second hit of the night in the top of the seventh inning, as he singled to right field and advanced to second base on a fielding error by Gregor Blanco that allowed Owings to score from first base.

The night was not done for Collmenter at the plate, as he picked up his career-high third hit of the night in the top of the ninth inning.
