Raising Cain
Matt Cain left the game Saturday night with tightness in his hamstring:
Cain left the game in the eighth inning with tightness in his right hamstring, which he began feeling an inning earlier. Manager Bruce Bochy said he removed Cain as a precaution, adding, "I talked to Groesch. He thinks Matt will be fine for his next start."
The Giants can ill afford to lose Cain, especially with Barry Zito now in the bullpen. After a wobbly start to the season, Cain is starting to dominate again. He has allowed three runs over 191/3 innings over his last three starts. Moreover, he is pitching more economically.
At least they have Barry as an emergency starter!
