Low Run Wins
The Giants have found a way to win. Don't allow runs! The team scored four runs in their last two games, about in line with their offensive rate all year. They've only allowed two, however. Last night, Jonathan Sanchez pitched six shutout innings against the Padres, and the bullpen kept it going until the hero of the previous night, Bengie Molina singled to start the ninth, then with two out, Ortmeier doubled in the pinch runner. So all the Giants need to do to win the NL West is keep their ERA around 1.00!
