Summary: On today's Locked On Giants podcast, host Ben Kaspick breaks down the San Francisco Giants' 12-0 drubbing of the Colorado Rockies, a win that vaulted them into a first-place tie with the Dodgers in the NL West. Anthony DeSclafani pitched a complete game shutout, lowering his ERA on the season to 1.50. The Giants' starting staff as a whole now has an MLB-best 2.11 ERA. DeSclafani seems to be the latest among a growing list of pitchers who have revitalized their careers since coming to the Giants. A ton of credit needs to go to the Giants' coaching staff, and Gabe Kapler for hiring them, and Farhan Zaidi for targeting the right players and hiring Kapler. On the offensive side, the Giants improved their non-pitcher wRC+ to 101, meaning they've actually been above average on the season. Buster Posey busted out with four hits last night, including a double and a towering home run to dead center field. Evan Longoria was able to play, as was Brandon Belt. Both have minor leg injuries. Mike Yastrzemski was out of the lineup with oblique tightness, but Kapler said he was hopeful Yaz would be able to avoid a trip to the injured list.
