On the Giants podcast with Morris:

#1 After the Giants had two days off having Friday and Saturday off because a player had tested false positive on Thursday night they turned around and lost a Sunday doubleheader at Petco Park 6-0 and 3-1.

#2 Morris in the front game the Giants were shutout by the pitching of Mike Clevinger 6-0, Clevinger who went seven innings and gave up just two hits and the Giants looked like they couldn’t lay any lumber on him.

#3 The Giants held the Padres slugger Fernando Tatis Jr to 0-3, Manny Machado got a hit and run, Austin Nola and Jake Cronenworth both scored twice in the front game. The Padres seem like they get a different hero everyday.

#4 The Padres took the second game Padres starter Garret Richards pitched 4.1 innings gave up only one run and two hits and the Padres pitching staff of Tim Hill, Drew Pomeranz, and Trevor Rosenthal kept the Giants off balance shutting them out for the rest of the way. Padres win 3-1.

#5 The Giants have Monday off which means it’s the Morris Giants day off report and play the Seattle Mariners at T-Mobile Field for a two game series starting Tuesday night. Pitchers for Tuesday for the Giants a pitcher to be named later and for the Mariners Ljay Newsome (0-0 ERA 3.24).
