Logan Webb Shines: SF Giants Beat Dodgers to Avoid Sweep

The San Francisco Giants avoided being swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers for the second time this season, as they pulled out a 4-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers at Oracle Park. Logan Webb tossed six scoreless innings, showing again why he's one of the best pitchers in baseball. Luis Matos showed what he can do on both offense and defense, as he drove in a run and pulled a ball back that was destined for the bullpen beyond the center field wall. Giants, however, still lose the series and sit at just 20-25 after the win. A far cry from what Giants fans expected going into this season.

The San Francisco Giants look completely overmatched against the Los Angeles Dodgers, as they fell again to their arch rivals 10-2 at Oracle Park today. Keaton Winn had another blow up fourth inning, punctuated by a moonshot home run from Shohei Ohtani. This season, the San Francisco Giants are winless against the Los Angeles Dodgers, with a record of 0-5. This three-game series concludes tomorrow. In even worse news for the Giants, Jung Hoo Lee could be done for the season and Patrick Bailey returns to the concussion injury list. This season is turning into a disaster.
