On the Giants podcast with Morris the Giants catcher Trevor Brown has been a God send for San Francisco Brown allows starting catcher Buster Posey to get some breaks and rest from behind the plate. None was any different on Sunday night at Chase Field when Buster sat down and Brown who is hitting .261 got a hit and a run in a game that was made up by a one run difference. The Giants who were off on Monday are in San Diego Tuesday night and are coming off a three game road trip.

The Giants Matt Cain helped in the success of the Giants sweep on Sunday pitching his second straight effective game. Cain didn’t get the win but went seven innings, seven hits, one run, five strikeouts, and Giants manager Bruce Bochy is relieved that Cain looks like he’s got his old self back.
