After dropping 14 of 18, the Giants have won 6 of their past 8 after Cobb’s best start with San Francisco
SAN FRANCISCO — It couldn’t happen again. It wouldn’t, right? Surely, the thoughts racing through the heads of so many of the 41,257 Giants fans in attendance Saturday afternoon when Mike Yastrzemski stepped in against Brewers reliever Jandel Gustave with the bases loaded, tied at 1, in the bottom of the eighth.
Powered by Alex Cobb’s best outing in orange and black, the Giants beat the Brewers 2-1, securing at least a split in this four-game series with the NL Central leaders and further correcting course from an all-time skid with one game to go until the All-Star break. After dropping 14 of 18, the Giants have won six of their past eight games.
Darin Ruf broke a scoreless tie with a solo shot to left in the sixth inning, his second homer in as many games after he smashed one of three ninth-inning blasts in Friday night’s comeback win. It also served as only the Giants’ second hit, as Brewers starter Eric Lauer traded zeros with Cobb for much of the afternoon.
