On the Giants podcast with Morris:

#1 In a heated battle, the San Francisco Giants lost their eighth straight game to the Milwaukee Brewers in a three-run loss at Miller Park on Sunday afternoon. The game didn’t go without some frustrations. The Brewers’ Ryan Braun at the plate. Giants starter Madison Bumgarner threw his first serving to Braun high and up that backed Braun off the plate. The second pitch up and high, and the third one hit Braun in the elbow as Braun was walking up the first base line he was jawing with Bumgarner, which brought out both dugouts.

#2 Brewers manager Craig Counsell came out to argue with plate umpire Tom Hallion. who had just warned both benches. Counsell argued that Hallion should have tossed Bumgarner and that the Brewers didn’t do anything to precipitate Bumgarner to throw at Braun.

#3 The Brewers’ Jonathan Schoop hit a grand slam home run to help the Brewers get a three run lead. The Giants, who ended the six-game road trip Sunday, went 0-6, and if that wasn’t tough enough, they come back to San Francisco to host the first-place Atlanta Braves.
