[Giants]

Win in the bottom of the 11th, 10-9. Bivens got the win with two IP, allowed one run. Verlander continues to look very hittable, giving up three earned runs in 2 1/3rd, although Kruk & Kuip said the plate ump was squeezing calls all day. Doval gave up three unearned runs. Trivino, also hittable, gave up two earned runs. Erik Miller gave up two hits and a walk, but got the hitter to hit a fly almost to the fence that Jung Hoo Lee ran down.

Adames, Wade, Bailey, Ramos; three hits each, Chapman, two hits. Had their first error of the season, Fitzgerald. Padres lost, so the Giants are half a game behind them. And the Phillies are beating the Dodgers at home, 3-0 in the 8th.

Throughout the game, the umpire’s strike zone was about the same size as a thimble. Seattle’s last reliever, Vargas, was ridiculously squeezed.  Lee’s catch in center with bases full was a pleasant surprise as he took a rather circuitous route to the ball.
