On the Giants Podcast with Miguel:

1 Watching the Giants last night you would have never known they were a last place club. With a three run home run by Buster Posey in the first and pitcher Ty Blach going seven innings, giving up seven hits and two runs against the World Champion Cubs

2 Cubs are in the same spot they were last season in first but they are not playing as strong as they did last season

3 The Cubs who got an inside the ball park home at AT&T Park from Javier Baez on Monday night it was the first inside the park homer at AT&T by a visiting club since the Rockies Brandon Barnes did it in 2014 and the last Giant to hit one at AT&T was Kelby Tomlinson who did it in 2015.

4 Cubs and Giants do battle once more at AT&T this afternoon with Hendricks starting for the Cubs 4-4 and Madison Bumgarner for San Francisco 1-5 as Mad Bum is looking for his second win

5 Some of the Giants wins at AT&T Park have been from getting some good pitching and using the park to the pitcher’s advantage
