When was the last time the San Francisco Giants had 1-0, back-to-back wins? That would be 36 years ago! In 1980, Ed Whitson beat the Expos and Vida Blue followed with a gem against the Mets! But Whitson and Vida didn't ride horses (yes, that's Cueto on the white horse!). Let's Go Giants!

Giants WON - Padres ZIP! Cueto pitches 9 shut-out innings, Belt singles, and then Pence (who was not feeling well and hasn't played the last few games!) comes in to pinch hit for Johnnie Beisbol and he doubles, Belt scores, Giants win! We're in 1st, with LAD 4.5 GB! Let's Go Giants!

Very best of wishes and a speedy recovery to Vogie, who was hit directly in the face (left eye and cheek, orbital bone fracture) by a 92 MPH fastball while AB today. There will be no updates from the Pirates until tomorrow, but it looked very severe. His wife, Nicole, says he will be okay. We still ️ you, Vogie (Pittsburgh Pirates)! Once a Giant, always a Giant! #ryanvogelsong
