My 10* Division Game of the Month (NL West) is on the SF Giants at 10:15 ET.
The San Francisco Giants rallied from three runs down, tying the game in
the ninth and 10th innings but fell 7-6 to Arizona in 12 innings last
night Thursday. The defeat was San Francisco’s SEVENTH straight, leaving
the Giants in danger of losing EIGHT straight for the first time since
June 13-22, 2007. The reigning World Series champs haven't started 0-5
at home since 2000. The Giants enter tonight’s game 3-8 (opened 3-10 in
1983 and 3-9 in both 1985 and 2000), sending Jake Peavy to the mound
against Arizona’s Josh Collmenter.
The D’backs are 5-5 to open 2015 but lost 13 of 19 against the Giants
last year, despite winning the final three games of the season series.
The Giants won TWO of three in Arizona to open 2015 but last night’s
Arizona win evens the series at two-all. Josh Collmenter gave up five
runs and 10 hits in 4.2 innings of a 5-4 season-opening defeat to the
Giants on April 6 and enters 0-2 with a 6.25 ERA in his first two starts
of 2015. "For me to be successful I have to throw fastballs where I
want them to be," the right-hander said after that start. "I was
throwing them all over the place. I got behind in some counts. I threw
some pitches that they could put the bat on and they did that
sometimes." Collmenter had been 2-1 with a 1.50 ERA in his previous four
starts against San Francisco but wasn't much better Sunday when he
allowed three ERs on nine hits in five innings of a 7-4 loss to the Los
Angeles Dodgers. "I've got to make better pitches," he said. "Even the
ones that aren't getting a lot of the bat, they are getting enough of it
so I have to put them in a better location."
"We're not happy about it, that's for sure," Thursday's starter Madison
Bumgarner said about his team’s poor start to 2015. "But I definitely
think things will turn around for us. It can be frustrating but we play a
lot of games." Peavy’s only previous start in 2015 saw him allow four
runs (on backup catcher Wil Nieves' grand slam) in his fourth and final
inning of a 6-4 defeat. He had been dealing with lower-back stiffness
(missed his first scheduled start of the season due to back soreness),
giving up three other hits and walking three with five strikeouts.
However, the veteran right-hander has won FIVE straight starts against
the Diamondbacks, while posting a 1.77 ERA with 19 strikeouts and three
walks in three over the last two seasons.
I’m ‘biting’ on the Giants to end their slide here behind Peavy, as the
D’backs were just 49-73 vs right-handers last year, including 24-41 on
the road while averaging just 3.3 RPG. SEVEN straight losses is ENOUGH!
