^ yea I knew they beat the dodgers on a sweep, didn't know they did them all shut outs until I was reading after another shutout, this time the first game in the Reds' Series.
Pitching was always there, Lincecum was a surprise, but it looks like he's settling in, which is scary for opponents. Zito had a couple bad games, but he looks very very consistent this year, and Vogelsong is flying under the radar, getting wins without much news.
In any case, again I'm still impressed with over half of the lineup being new that the Giants can score the amount of runs. Posey is back to where he was, which was impressive, not too much hiccup. Still waiting on Sandoval's big power to come back, but he's still producing. Belt is coming into his own. Blanco is awesome. H. Sanchez started off the year with good pop, but he's been more productive with less power recently.
Schierholtz... kinda disappeared, Arias + Burriss don't play too much. Crawford is becoming steady, I think he kinda felt a lot of pressure early, but now he's settling in much better.
Melk man continuous to produce, and I hope he made the cut at the allstars team.. and in fact he might be playing if Kemp's hamstring keeps him out of it.

Way to blow it on the final game of the series against the Nationals.
IMO, Crawford needs to take a seat for Arias or Buriss. His batting is average, and supposedly his glove is awesome, but I see errors all the time by him. Way to screw up an easy turn double play.

Lol how Mets fans were whining about how RA Dickey and David Wright should've started the game. David Wright struck out, while Pablo hit a bases loaded clearing triple.
Giants players basically won this game! lol

Harper has the most epic moment ever. I'm still amazed at some of the guys who can get themselves out of jams, like obviously Cain. But watching Kershaw squeeze out of a fully loaded inning vs. the top players is amazing.

I just watched Melky's MVP award on sfgiants... absolutely hilarious, but even though there was a gap in communication, he made sure he thought of the fans and of San Francisco!
Great accomplishment for Melky. That homerun sealed the deal!
