The Giants won for the 8th time in 10 games; their relievers have the lowest ERA in MLB during that stretch in the second-most IP.
MILWAUKEE — The Giants said they planned to quickly flush their stinker of a series finale in Minnesota, and they kept their word Thursday, earning a 5-0 win in their first of four games against the Brewers.
Scott Alexander opened with a 1-2-3 first, and Giants pitchers retired the first 11 batters they faced, surrendering only four hits the rest of the way. With 13 strikeouts, their pitching staff recorded double-digit strikeouts for the 20th time this season. The bullpen was the biggest source of the Giants’ troubles as they sank as many as six games under .500. Suddenly, it appears to be among the majors’ best.
Doval’s services weren’t required Thursday, after San Francisco rallied for a four-spot in the top of the eighth. All seven of their previous wins were within three runs; Doval closed out six of them. Alexander saved the other, and on Thursday made his first appearance this season as an opener.A day after a game full of defensive miscues reminiscent of last season, center fielder Mike Yastrzemski turned in possibly San Francisco’s web gem of the year so far.
