The Giants are close to breaking a
modern era record with their 20 consecutive games of allowing fewer than five runs. (And they've allowed fewer than
four runs in 15 straight games).
The Giants will not have to face
Ubaldo Jimenez in the upcoming Rockies series...it's looking like they'll face
Jhoulys Chacin,
Jason Hammel, and
Jorge de la Rosa, all of whom they are capable of beating.
Andres Torres might return sooner than expected:
