San Francisco Giants podcast with Marko Ukalovic:
#1 In a come back game the San Francisco Giants edged the Minnesota Twins at Oracle Park on Sunday. The Giants had led for most of the game 2-0 until the Twins tied it up in the top of the ninth when Manuel Margot hit a double to score Byron Buxton and Diego Castillo making it 2-2.
#2 The Giants came back in the bottom of the ninth when Mike Yastrzemski hit a triple and was able to keep on going when Twins second baseman Brooks Lee made a throwing error to third base that sailed over towards the Giants dugout and Yastrzemski scored on a walk off error for the 3-2 win.
#3 Up until the ninth the Giants held onto a 2-0 lead and and starter Blake Snell looking for his first win of the season pitched a dandy, pitching seven innings allowing one hit and striking out eight. Snell shut the Twins out for all seven innings.
#4 The Twins got good pitching out Chris Paddock going five innings allowing five hits and one earned run striking out six batters. The Twins just couldn’t get any run production except for their two run ninth to tie the game.
#5 It’s the All Star break the Giants will be represented by centerfielder Heliot Ramos and pitcher Logan Webb. Talk about the job both of them did in the first half to earn getting in the All Star Game?
