San Francisco Giants podcast Michael Villanueva:
#1 San Francisco Giants pitcher Logan Webb put together seven dominant innings with nine Ks and no walks. What do you feel clicked for him yesterday compared to the past starts?
#2 Wilmer Flores came through with a clutch two-run double off the bench — should the Giants be using him more in key late-game situations?
#3 Michael do you remain worried about the offense’s inconsistency, or are you more inspired by the Giants’ ability to fabricate a victory with just two runs scored?
#4 The bullpen held strong again, with Doval locking down the ninth — is the Giants’ bullpen quietly becoming the most reliable part of this team?
#5 Looking at the upcoming schedule, can a close win like this be a turning point to assert dominance in the league, or do the Giants still have too many unanswered questions?
#6 The Giants continue their homestand tonight at Oracle Park with a key game against the Red Sox, following a much-needed victory over the Guardians. When Rafael Devers plays his old team for the first time since the trade, everyone will be watching him closely. Boston’s Hunter Dobbins (3.74 ERA) will face Hayden Birdsong (2.79 ERA). 7:15 is the first pitch.
