On SF Giants podcast with Michael Duca:

#1 Cincinnati Reds pitcher Hunter Greene pitched himself a gem on Monday night at Oracle Park going 8.2 innings, four hits, no runs, seven strike outs and one walk.

#2 Greene came one out from completing the game and it was an classic National League pitching duel between Greene and San Francisco Giants starter Logan Webb both All Stars.

#3 This Giants line up are one of the best offenses in MLB they came in winning eight of their last nine games and it seemed like no one was going to stop them. But Michael isn’t you who came up with the phrase good pitching beats good hitting everytime?

#4 The Giants had that good run with a seven game win streak and it had shades of a team put together from the days of those post season teams of 2010-2014 how do you compare them?

#5 Reds and Giants get after it again tonight here at Oracle Park. Starting pitcher for the Reds Nick Lodolo 1-1 ERA 1.42 he’ll match up against the Giants starter Landen Roupp 0-0 ERA 6.75 for a 6:45pm first pitch. Talk about how you see this match up and who do you like in this one?
